| Summary: | Throughout the years, ocean pollution have been quite an issue as incidents such as, transportation and storage leakage, leakage of pipelines, oil spillage or leakage in the manufacture industry, and others have brought threats in human health, marine ecosystem and also the environment. Thus, the alternatives to prevent these issues have been proposed. One of the alternatives that being introduced is by using absorbent material for oil absorption as it is eco-friendly and cost-effective. In this review paper, modified cellulose-based aerogels were used as the absorbent material for oil absorption due to its abundant resources and unique properties. The structure of cellulose itself, source of origin and its absorption capacity were discussed in detail. In general, this paper has provided an overview regarding the effectiveness of the modified cellulose-based aerogels as the oil spillage recovery treatment and its application in oil spillage incidents. |
