A research group led by Prof. Zhu Jin at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), has synthesized a high-efficiency carbon nanotube (CNT) modified lignin-based polyurethane adsorbent for crude oil spill remediation, in cooperation with Prof. Chen Tao’s group at NIMTE and Prof. Yan Ning’s group at the University of Toronto (U of T). The study was published in the Chemical Engineering Journal.
