A barrel‐shaped oil‐skimmer composed of a superhydrophobic‐superoleophilic Cu foam and a glass barrel has been developed to separate oil and water. In article number 1500350, W. J. Xu and co‐workers demonstrate that the device quickly and selectively absorbs and collects a variety of oils from a polluted water surface, showing a high separation efficiency and volume‐based absorption capacity. It also shows good storage stability; no oil escapes from the skimmer under harsh conditions.
