Synthesis and Characterization of a ZrO/AC Composite as a Novel Adsorbent for Dibenzothiophene

Zirconium dioxide was impregnated into a commercial activated carbon (AC) by hydrothermal treatment employing an aqueous ZrOCl 2 •8H 2 O solution. The ZrO 2 /AC composites thus prepared were tested as adsorbents for dibenzothiophene (DBT) from a model diesel fuel. In comparison to the pure AC, impre...
