Summary:The adsorption properties of carbon materials for purification of petrochemical systems were predicted digitally. The mechanism of styrene adsorption in pores of various sizes was clarified more precisely and the styrene adsorption energies were calculated with and without taking account of the aqueous medium. The “structure-adsorption activity” relationship was established and the characteristics responsible for increase in adsorption capacity of carbon sorbents were identified: the expedient pore size of the carbon material of the adsorbent was determined to ensure sufficient effectiveness of styrene adsorption from aqueous medium. The experimental studies of styrene adsorption from aqueous medium using commercial AG-3 and BAU carbon sorbents confirm the validity of the established mechanisms.
