- In this paper, the use of a mesoporous silica alumina (MSA) for the removal of hydrocarbons from water is outlined. This area is becoming increasingly important as tighter and tighter environmental emission legislation is introduced across Europe. This work was collaboration between Sapienza University of Rome, Wolverhampton University and Eni S.p.A., Research Center for Unconventional Energies. This work has been used by thirteen research groups from around the world studying the adsorption of both toxic heavy metals and residual drug pollution in aquatic systems, such as Prof. Bontempi at Bresica University, Italy.
