Abstract
The review report reflects on the potential of highly hydrophobic silica aerogel as a viable material for oil absorption application in the clean-up of oil spills on oceans. The review presents the conventional clean-up technologies, silica aerogel synthesis and coatings by sol-gel method and simulation techniques to predict the maximization of efficiency as well as mechanical characteristics for practical applications.
