Adsorption of benzene as a model low-MW aromatic by various engineered carbon materials. A) Raw adsorption data for three formulations of carbon-black-based dispersants in simulated seawater. B) Adsorption isotherm comparing the particle-based dispersants to powdered activated carbon (PAC) as an engineered sorbent reference material. Inset shows a detailed view of the adsorption isotherm for the particle-based dispersants only.
