Separation of Crude Oil and Its Derivatives Spilled In Seawater by Using Commiphora Myrrha and Coal Fly Ash

Abstract

In this study, a hybrid nanoparticles CoFe2O4with Commiphora Myrrha and a Coal fly ash was tested to remove oil spills from the sea water in the case of pollutions. The NPs material has been prepared at Sebha University, while the rest of materials have been collected commercially, the materials were identified by X-ray diffraction spectroscopy (XRD) and infrared absorption spectroscopy (FTIR). The results have shown that the best results were obtained by using a hybrid NPsCoFe2O4nanoparticleswith Commiphora Myrrha at a ratio of 20:80was 30.7%, with a concentration of 0.06 g. While the best scenario was obtained by Hybrid NPs with coal fly ash at a ratio 30:70 was 69.7%, with a concentration of 0.06 g.
