The potential use of lignocellulosic biomass as oil sorbents was demonstrated through acetylation of mercerized pineapple leaves (M-PAL) using acetic anhydride with catalysts (N-bromosuccinimide and pyridine) in order to enhance its surface hydrophobicity and thus oil sorption capacity for treatment...
