“…Following tropical storms and other disturbance events, coastal dunes are often replanted to replenish coastal vegetation and to prevent additional erosion. Since Deepwater Horizon in 2010, more than $18 billion has been budgeted to the coastal states along the United States Gulf Coast to restore coastal habitat and shoreline (Diefenderfer et al ., 2022; Henkel and Dausman, 2020). As of 2020, more than 1200 coastal restoration projects have restored over 7500 acres of coastal habitat along the United States Gulf Coast (Henkel and Dausman, 2020).…”

“…The environmental pollution caused by oil leakage and oil-bearing wastewater from industrial production is threatening the global ecosystem. [1][2][3][4] In addition to petroleum spills, other types of oils, such as fats, lubricants, cutting liquids, and heavy and light hydrocarbons, have also caused water contamination worldwide. 5 This oily wastewater has negative impacts on aquatic organisms, economy, tourism activities, and human health if not treated properly.…”

In this study, degummed and undegummed silkworm cocoon wastes were used to investigate their oil sorption capabilities for three kinds of oils, namely motor oil, vegetable oil, and crude oil. The laboratory-scale oil sorption results reveal that degummed silkworm cocoon waste has sorption capacities of 16.7, 15.8, and 14.2 g/g for motor oil, vegetable oil, and crude oil, respectively. It exhibits higher sorption capacities for these three oils compared with raw cocoons and cocoon scrap. These sorbents also exhibited excellent oil/water selectivity, retention capacity, and reusability. According to the large-scale experiment, the crude oil can be removed completely by degummed silkworm cocoon waste in 20 min, which shows that degummed silkworm cocoon waste could be considered a good alternative to synthetic sorbent materials applied to oil removal and recycling.
