| Summary: | Toward Reliable and Efficient Solutions.Oil-water contamination is a global issue, with serious impacts on ecosystems and the environment. Materials with tunable wettability characteristics have emerged to separate oil-water mixtures and emulsions. This two-volume set (1407, 1408) presents fundamental principles and mechanistic views of oil-water separation processes and wetting theories. This volume introduces the field, basic principles, and techniques for oil-water separation and oil spill removal. The authors highlight membrane materials, nanomaterials, and polymers, to name a few. Chemical engineers, materials scientists, and environmental chemists in industry and academia will find this work especially helpful. © 2022 American Chemical Society. All rights reserved.
