In this study, the preparation of activated carbons from various materials of biomass origin by activation with potassium hydroxide and a comprehensive computer analysis of their porous structure and adsorption properties based on benzene (C6H6) adsorption isotherms were carried out. In particular, the influence of the mass ratio of the activator’s dry mass to the char mass on the formation of the microporous structure of the obtained activated carbons was analysed. The summary of the analyses carried out based on benzene adsorption isotherms begged the conclusion that activated carbon with a maximum adsorption volume in the first adsorbed layer and homogeneous surface can be obtained from ebony wood at a mass ratio of the activator to the char of R = 3. The obtained results confirmed the superiority of the new numerical-clustering-based adsorption analysis (LBET) method over simple methods of porous structure analysis, such as the Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) and Dubinin–Raduskevich (DR) methods. The LBET method is particularly useful in the evaluation of the influence of the methods and conditions of production of activated carbons on the formation of their porous structure. This method, together with an appropriate economic analysis, can help in the precise selection of methods and conditions for the process of obtaining activated carbons at specific manufacturing costs, and thus makes it possible to obtain materials that can successfully compete with those of other technologies used in industrial practice and everyday life.

The porous nature of alumina has been investigated using various techniques. The values obtained for moisture content, surface area, pore volume, average particle size and porosity were 22%, 116 m2/g, 0.76 cm3/g, 17.0±0.5 μm and 68.0%, respectively. The adsorption isotherms of NdIII, PrIII and ErIII on alumina from aqueous solution have been obtained at different temperatures. All these adsorption isotherms obey the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm equations. Thermodynamic parameters such as the free energy, entropy and enthalpy of adsorption have been computed and interpreted. It is noteworthy that the adsorption of PrIII and NdIII increases with decreasing temperature while the reverse is observed for ErIII.
