Abstract
Water scarcity will worsen due to population growth, urbanization, and climate change. Addressing this issue requires developing energy-efficient and cost-effective water purification technologies. One approach is to use biomass to make bio-based materials (BBMs) with valuable attributes. This aligns with the goal of environmental conservation and waste management. Furthermore, the use of biomass is advantageous because it is readily available, economical, and has minimal secondary environmental impact. Biomass materials are ideal for water purification because they are abundant and contain important functional groups like hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amino groups. Functional groups are important for modifying and absorbing contaminants in water. Single-sourced biomass has limitations such as weak mechanical strength, limited adsorption capacity, and chemical instability. Investing in research and development is crucial for the development of efficient methods to produce BBMs and establish suitable water purification application models. This review covers BBM production, modification, functionalization, and their applications in wastewater treatment. These applications include oil-water separation, membrane filtration, micropollutant removal, and organic pollutant elimination. This review explores the production processes and properties of BBMs from biopolymers, highlighting their potential for water treatment applications. Furthermore, this review discusses the future prospects and challenges of developing BBMs for water treatment and usage. Finally, this review highlights the importance of BBMs in solving water purification challenges and encourages innovative solutions in this field.

Abstract
Cotton fibers have received considerable attention owing to their functional properties. Current research endeavors have shifted toward devising straightforward and versatile approaches for modifying cotton fibers. Herein, a simple and feasible method was proposed for preparing multifunctional cotton fibers. This method entailed subjecting cotton fibers to alkaline conditions, prompting the epoxy group in epoxidized soybean oil to engage in a ring-opening reaction with the hydroxyl group in cotton fibers and the amino group in polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride. Epoxidized soybean oil acted as a bridge, forming a covalent bond between polyhexamethylene guanidine hydrochloride and cotton fibers, thereby facilitating the cationization of cotton fibers. Structural changes in the modified cotton fibers were characterized using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The modified cotton fibers were also evaluated for their dyeing, antibacterial, and hydrophobic properties. The results demonstrated that the dye exhaustion and total dye utilization of modified cotton in salt-free dyeing were much higher than those of raw cotton in conventional dyeing. The water contact angle of the modified cotton fiber reached 139.5°, and their antibacterial properties were partially improved. Importantly, this chemical modification was performed under mild conditions, highlighting its simplicity and environmentally friendly nature.

Abstract
With rapid socioeconomic development, oil is widely used in all aspects of modern society. However, the extraction, transport, and processing of oil inevitably lead to the production of large quantities of oily wastewater. Traditional oil/water separation strategies are often inefficient, costly, and cumbersome to operate. Therefore, new green, low-cost, and high-efficiency materials must be developed for oil/water separation. As widely sourced and renewable natural biocomposites, wood-based materials have become a hot field recently. This review will focus on the application of several wood-based materials in oil/water separation. The state of research on wood sponges, cotton fibers, cellulose aerogels, cellulose membranes, and some other wood-based materials for oil/water separation over the last few years and provide an outlook on their future development are summarized and investigated. It is expected to provide some direction for future research on the use of wood-based materials in oil/water separation.

Abstract
Ultralight aerogels with low bulk density, highly porous nature, and functional performance have received significant focus in the field of water pollution treatment. Here, high-crystallinity, large surface-aera metal frame-work (ZIF-8) was efficiently utilized to assist in the preparation of ultralight yet highly oil and organic solvent adsorption capacity, double-network cellulose nanofibers/chitosan-based aerogels through a physical entanglement and scalable freeze-drying approach. After chemical vapor deposition with methyltrimethoxysilane, a hydrophobic surface was obtained with a water contact angle of 132.6°. The synthetic ultralight aerogel had low density (15.87 mg/cm3) and high porosity (99.01 %). Moreover, the aerogel had a three-dimensional porous structure, which endowed it with high adsorption capacity (35.99 to 74.55 g/g) for organic solvent, and outstanding cyclic stability (>88 % of the adsorption capacity after 20 cycles). At the same time, aerogel removes oil from various oil/water mixtures by gravity alone and has excellent separation performance. This work holding excellent properties in terms of convenient, low-cost, scalability to manufacture environmentally friendly biomass-based materials for oily water pollution treatment.

Abstract
As oil and chemical spills pose a significant threat to the water environment, the need to develop efficient sorbent materials to remove oil and organic pollutants from water has arisen. This study aimed to develop a simple modification scheme to impart oil and water selective absorption capacity to a common three-dimensional porous material. Commercially available polyurethane sponges were used as the base material, and vinyl silica aerogel particles were loaded onto the sponges using polydimethylsiloxane as an adhesion agent. As a result, the water contact angle of the modified sponge increased from 118° to 149.2°, and the water absorption decreased from 106.5 g/g to 0.2 g/g; it could absorb oil in oil-water mixtures without absorbing water and maintain an excellent level of selective absorption ability after 20 cycles. This modification scheme is easy to operate and robust and is a scheme of practical application.

Abstract
A solar-driven unmanned hazardous and noxious substance (HNS) trapping device that can absorb, evaporate, condense, and collect HNSs was prepared. The HNS trapping device was composed of three parts: a reverse piloti structure (RPS) for absorption and evaporation of HNSs, Al mirrors with optimized angles for focusing light, and a cooling line system for the condensation of HNSs. The RPS was fabricated by assembling a lower rectangle structure and an upper hollow column. The lower rectangular structure showed a toluene evaporation rate of 6.31 kg/m2 h, which was significantly increased by the installation of the upper hollow column (11.21 kg/m2 h) and led to the formation of the RPS. The installation of Al mirrors on the RPS could further enhance the evaporation rate by 9.1% (12.28 kg/m2 h). The RPS system equipped with an Al mirror could rapidly remove toluene, xylene, and toluene–xylene with high evaporation rates (12.28–8.37 kg/m2 h) and could effectively collect these substances with high efficiencies (81–65%) in an unmanned HNS trapping device. This prototype HNS trapping device works perfectly without human involvement, does not need electricity, and thus is suitable for fast cleanup and collection of HNSs in the ocean.

Abstract
Recent developments in the application of lignocellulosic materials for oil spill removal are discussed in this review article. The types of lignocellulosic substrate material and their different chemical and physical modification strategies and basic preparation techniques are presented. The morphological features and the related separation mechanisms of the materials are summarized. The material types were classified into 3D-materials such as hydrophobic and oleophobic sponges and aerogels, or 2D-materials such as membranes, fabrics, films, and meshes. It was found that, particularly for 3D-materials, there is a clear correlation between the material properties, mainly porosity and density, and their absorption performance. Furthermore, it was shown that nanocellulosic precursors are not exclusively suitable to achieve competitive porosity and therefore absorption performance, but also bulk cellulose materials. This finding could lead to developments in cost- and energy-efficient production processes of future lignocellulosic oil spillage removal materials.

Abstract
Cellulose Nanocrystals, CNC, opportunely functionalized are proposed as reactive fillers in bio-based flexible polyurethane foams to improve, mainly, their mechanical properties. To overcome the cellulose hydrophilicity, CNC was functionalized on its surface by linking covalently a suitable bio-based polyol to obtain a grafted-CNC. The polyols grafted with CNC will react with the isocyanate in the preparation of the polyurethane foams. An attractive way to introduce functionalities on cellulose surfaces in aqueous media is silane chemistry by using functional trialkoxy silanes, X-Si (OR)3. Here, we report the synthesis of CNC-grafted-biopolyol to be used as a successful reactive filler in bio-based polyurethane foams, PUFs. The alkyl silanes were used as efficient coupling agents for the grafting of CNC and bio-polyols. Four strategies to obtain CNC-grafted-polyol were fine-tuned to use CNC as an active filler in PUFs. The effective grafting of the bio polyol on CNC was evaluated by FTIR analysis, and the amount of grafted polyol by thermogravimetric analysis. Finally, the morphological, thermal and mechanical properties and hydrophobicity of filled PUFs were thoughtfully assessed as well as the structure of the foams and, in particular, of the edges and walls of the cell foams by means of the Gibson-Ashby model. Improved thermal stability and mechanical properties of PU foams containing CNC-functionalized-polyol are observed. The morphology of the PU foams is also influenced by the functionalization of the CNC.

Abstract
Oil spill accidents and oily wastewater discharged by petrochemical industries have severely wasted water resources and damaged the environment. The use of special wetting materials to separate oil and water is efficient and environment-friendly. Cellulose is the most abundant renewable resource and has natural advantages in removing pollutants from oily wastewater. The application and modification of cellulose as special wetting materials have attracted considerable research attention. Therefore, we summarized cellulose-based superlipophilic/superhydrophobic and superhydrophilic/superoleophobic materials exhibiting special wetting properties for oil/water separation. The treatment mechanism, preparation technology, treatment effect, and representative projects of oil-bearing wastewater are discussed. Moreover, cellulose-based intelligent-responsive materials for application to oil/water separation and the removal of other pollutants from oily wastewater have also been summarized. The prospects and potential challenges of all the materials have been highlighted.

Abstract
Bio-based aerogels serve as potential materials in separation of oil/water mixtures. Nevertheless, there remain some key challenges, including expensive/toxic organic cross-linkers, unpromising reusability, and poor performance in emulsion separation. Hereby, a novel, robust, and superhydrophobic sodium alginate/graphene oxide/silicon oxide aerogel (SA/GO/SiO2-M) was fabricated by simple calcium ion cross-linking self-assembly, freeze-drying, and chemical vapor deposition methods based on the renewable and abundant raw materials. The as-prepared SA-based aerogel possesses high absorbency for varieties of organic solvents and oils. Importantly, it shows high efficiency in the separation of surfactant-stabilized water-in-oil emulsions. SA/GO/SiO2-M aerogels display excellent reusability in both absorption and separation because of their good mechanical properties in the air and oil phase, and the mechanism in emulsion separation is discussed. This study shows that SA/GO/SiO2-M aerogels are a promising material in treating oil contaminants from different fields.

Abstract
According to the International Energy Agency, biorefinery is "the sustainable processing of biomass into a spectrum of marketable bio-based products (chemicals, materials) and bioenergy (fuels, power, heat)". In this review, we survey how the biorefinery approach can be applied to highly porous and nanostructured materials, namely aerogels. Historically, aerogels were first developed using inorganic matter. Subsequently, synthetic polymers were also employed. At the beginning of the 21st century, new aerogels were created based on biomass. Which sources of biomass can be used to make aerogels and how? This review answers these questions, paying special attention to bio-aerogels' environmental and biomedical applications. The article is a result of fruitful exchanges in the frame of the European project COST Action "CA 18125 AERoGELS: Advanced Engineering and Research of aeroGels for Environment and Life Sciences".

Abstract
Hydrophobic/oleophilic absorbents have been largely studied and used in recovering spilled oil. However, they still suffer from several drawbacks and two of them are poor biocompatibility and hard to thoroughly rinse. In order to address these problems, here a hydrophobic magnetic chitosan-based aerogel is fabricated via electrostatic interactions between chitosan (CS), itaconic acid (IA) and Fe3O4 nanoparticles and dip-coating in ethanol solution of Candelilla wax (CW). Due to the interconnected porous structure of chitosan-based aerogel, the magnetism of Fe3O4 nanoparticles and the hydrophobicity of CW, the prepared aerogel exhibits high absorption capacities (from 17.7 to 43.8 g/g) towards various types of organic liquids, excellent magnetic controllability with saturation magnetization of 15.93 emu/g and good water repellency with water contact angle (WCA) of 147.9°. In addition, the aerogel can also continuously separate immiscible oil/water mixtures and water-in-oil emulsions as the form of filter. More significantly, the absorbed organic liquids can be completely recovered by simply placing the aerogel in water solution of IA at 75 °C, which can avoid cleaning agent consumption. As a consequence, this renewable, biodegradable and eco-friendly oil scavenger presents a bright prospect in practical applications.

Abstract
Sodium titanate nanowire-assembled microspheres on titanium mesh have been synthesized through controlling an over the surface acidification and hydrothermal process in terms of a proposed in situ “nucleation-cum-growth” solution chemistry strategy. These directly grown microspheres crystallize in an orthorhombic lepidocrocite layered structure of sodium titanate with the composition of Na1.8Ti1.95□0.05O4.8 (□ ∼ vacancy) determined by the XRD, Raman and SEM-EDX techniques. An individual microsphere has a uniform size of around 10 microns while the constituent nanowires have a diameter of 100 nm growing along the [110] orientation. Owing to the specially well-defined hierarchical structure and robust in situ interfaces, these titanate nanowire-assembled microspheres, after 2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5-octafluoro-1-pentanol (OFP) surface modification, could achieve superhydrophobicity. This work demonstrates an in situ “nucleation-cum-growth” synthesis strategy and facile functionalization towards superhydrophobicity for oil–water separation, which might extend to a broad variety of oxide nanowire systems to fabricate well-defined structures for wettability tailoring and multi-functional applications. An in situ “nucleation-cum-growth” solution chemistry strategy was performed to synthesize titanate hierarchical microspheres with superhydrophobic properties and oil–water separation performance.![]()
