Anisotropic Cotton-Stalk-Derived Hydrothermally Treated Cellulose–Chitosan Aerogels Toward Anionic Dye Adsorption and Water-in-Oil Emulsion Separation
Transforming agricultural residues into functional porous materials provides a sustainable strategy for wastewater remediation. Herein, cellulose was separated from cotton stalks via formic acid-assisted hemicellulose extraction and sodium chlorite delignification, and then sulfuric acid hydrolysis. Chitosan-assisted h...
