Electrospun nanofibrous materials with attractive attributes, such as interconnected porous structure, large surface-to-area ratio, malleable mechanical properties, tuneable wettability, and porosity have a huge potential for oily wastewater treatment. In this chapter, the recent progress of oil/ water separation using electrospun nanofibrous materials is reviewed. The challenges and future prospects of this new field are also described.AbstractenElectrospinningElectrospun nanofibresNanofibrous membranesNanofibrous sorbentsOil/water separationSurface wettabiltyApplication of electrospun materials in oil–water separationsBook ChapterMokhena, T.
