Carbon residue obtained as a by-product fromwood gasification processwas employed as a precursor for preparing adsorbent by physical activation. Adsorbent with BET surface area 590m2 g-1 and pore volume of 0.335cm3 g-1 was prepared and used as an adsorbent for phosphate and nitrate removal. The optimal pH and initial concentrations for phosphate and nitrate removal were determined. The kinetics showed that the adsorption data followed pseudo-second-order kinetics. The isotherm analysis indicated that the adsorption data can be represented by the Langmuir model. Results showed that activated carbon residue is suitable adsorbent for phosphate removal.
