摘要
In this study, the 3D structure of carbon fibers (CFs) was prepared from Luffa sponge wastes by H3PO4 impregnation with various ratios and a low-temperature carbonization process at 500 °C in a nitrogen atmosphere. The H3PO4-treated Luffa sponge had higher thermal stability and carbonic yield (∼60–70%) than neat-Luffa (∼21%). Characterization analyses exposed that the synthesized CFs derived from H3PO4-treated Luffa exhibited oleophilic and hydrophobic carbonic nature with 3D sponge skeletal, reflecting an ideal structure for oil sorption. The engine oil sorption properties on the CFs were studied by varying the contact time. The engine oil sorption equilibrium data for 3D CFs samples was explained by the pseudo-second-order and intraparticle diffusion models. The equilibrium oil sorption capacities of 3D CFs were as large as 23.1 ± 0.4 g/g for engine oil, 23.7 ± 1.0 g/g for gasoline, 28.1 ± 1.0 g/g for almond oil, and 29.2 ± 0.8 g/g for pomegranate seed oil in 20 min. Moreover, the optimized 3D CFs can be selectively for oil/water separation applications, such as high capacities for various oils, fast kinetic sorption, and reusability (>6 cycles). This research presented a facile and cost-effective process for the 3D CFs through recycling Luffa sponge wastes for rapid oil sorption.
