Activated carbons (ACs) were prepared by pyrolysis of potato peel in presence of zinc chloride (chemical activities). Potato peel from Colombian cultives were impregnated with aqueous solutions of ZnCl 2 following a variant of the incipient wetness method. Different concentrations were used to produ

Adsorption studies of Zn 2+, Cd\*+, and Cu2+ from aqueous solutions at 293 K and 313 K on three activated carbons are reported. These carbons were obtained by activation of almond shells, olive stones, and peach stones by heating in CO, at 1123 K. From these isotherms some adsorption parameters have
Carbons were prepared from carbonized polyvinylidene chloride (850°C) by activation with CO, at 830°C to 85 per cent burn-off. Characterization of these carbons was made from gas phase adsorption data using nitrogen (77°K) and carbon dioxide (195" and 273°K) as adsorbates in conjunction with the Dub
Chars and activated carbons obtained from miscellaneous waste materials and by-products have been used to remove phenol and 2,3,4-trichlorophenol from one-and two-solute aqueous solutions. The effect of activation on the adsorption performance was studied. Activation not only improved the specific s
## An investi~atjon was made on the adsorption hehaviour of activated carbons in KI aqueous solution containing very small amounts of j2. Among the major solutes in the solution, I-, f; and I:, only IL was found to be adsorbed on the carbon. The amount of the solute for a given activated carbon wa
