Abstract
Magnetic charcoal was prepared by entrapment of fine charcoal particle s into the structure of magnetic iron oxides. This adsorbent can effic iently adsorb a variety of organic compounds. For the adsorption exper iments water soluble organic dyes belonging to the triphenylmethane, h eteropolycyclic and azodye groups were used as model compounds. Maximu m adsorption capacities ranged between 10 and 20 mg of dyes per 1 cm(3 ) of the sedimented adsorbent; this corresponds to 132.5-265 mg of dye s per 1 g of the dried adsorbent.
