Oil pollution is one of the leading causes of detriment to water ecosystems. Bioadsorbents have been studied for oil cleanup potential, but mixed bio-adsorbents have not been thoroughly studied yet. Thus, this study investigated Sugarcane ( ) bagasse and Corn ( ) cobs, two of the most underutilized...
