Chars were generated by pyrolyzing pine wood at temperatures between 300 °C and 700 °C for 6 h and at 500 °C for 10–300 min. Their organic content and surface acidity decreased, and BET surface area increased, with increasing pyrolytic temperature and time. The uptake of benzene and nitrobenzene increased with increasing pyrolytic temperature and time with isotherms characterized by a transition from less to more concave-downward. The isotherms with low-temperature and short-time chars were fitted to the dual Langmuir-partition model, whereas those with high-temperature chars to the dual-Langmuir model. Calculations suggest that the organic phases of chars functioned as partition media and the uptake of benzene and nitrobenzene on carbonized chars occurred first in micropores via pore-filling and later in larger pores through capillary condensation and adsorption. It is concluded that chars may be considered to consist of the partition domain, the high-energy micropores domain and the low-energy large pores domain. Pine chars consist of the partition domain, the micropores domain and the large pores domain in terms of organic contaminant uptake.
