Lecture
Oil Absorption Technology
Description
This lecture presents a groundbreaking technology inspired by the lotus leaf, which allows for the absorption of oil while repelling water. The instructor demonstrates how this technology can be used to clean oil spills in bodies of water, showcasing the process of separating gasoline from water using a special filter. By mimicking the properties of the lotus leaf, the material developed in the lecture acts as a sponge for oil, offering a solution to environmental pollution caused by oil spills.
