Carbon sorbents with different specific surface areas were selected for studying sorption of precious metals from metal-containing solutions. It was found that the maximum amount of sorbed silver is a function of the specific surface area of the carbon sorbent. The maximum sorption capacity decreases in the order ACF > AC > TEG. The features of the morphology of metal-containing carbon materials were revealed as a function of their properties, the nature of the metal, and the sorption conditions.
