Abstract: Samples of petroleum coke were used to prepare activated carbon (AC) using potassium hydroxide as active agent at 800 C. The results show that AC obtained has Iodine number (IN) and Methylene blue (MB) of 1242.40, 51.60 mg/g respectively. The AC has an adsorption capacity of 942 mg/g of dispersed oil at pH 4. The adsorption isotherm of oil fits Freundlich isotherm model with K, 1/n are (2.47) , ( 0.198) and an (R) of 0.9565. The adsorption capacity of Zinc (+2) is 368 mg/g. K, 1/n and R values are 1.25, 0.5122 and 0.971 respectively.
