Description

The aim the work was to investigate the adsorbent capacity of the Calotropis Procera fiber for the removal of hydrocarbons through its microstructural characteristics. Calotropis Procera is a latex-rich shrub. Although it is very little researched in the environmental area, the physical-chemical and microstructural properties of its fiber showed great efficiency as an adsorbent ecomaterial for hydrocarbons and derivatives with significant levels of adsorption
