Adsorption of dibenzothiophene (DBT) and 4,6-dimethyldibenzothiophene (4,6-DMDBT) from solutions in hexane and hexadecane respectively as well as in acetonitrile for both thiophenic compounds was investigated with sorbents of three activated carbons and their oxidized counterparts. The raw sorbents were of different surface acidity. Oxygen surface groups created after oxidation increased the adsorption of thiophenic compounds via polar interactions.
