Popis: In the present work was studied the adsorption-desorption of heavy metals from aqueous solutions using carbonaceous materials prepared with a technology that combines radiant and microwave heating. Three optimum carbons O-Cu, O-Cd and O-Zn were prepared and characterized using elemental analysis, potentiometric titration, nitrogen adsorption isotherms at − 196 °C, SEM/EDX analysis, and temperature programmed desorption (TPD). The three optimum carbons had very high oxygen contents mainly ascribed to surface functional groups of acidic nature. In contrast, the porosity of the carbons was very limited with specific surface areas being
