The article presents major comparative characteristics of sorbents obtained by chemical activation of petroleum
coke with phosphogypsum, including the use of polymer binder. The study of sorbents based on phosphogypsumactivated
petroleum coke for industrial effluent treatment is presented. The article also proposes the flowchart for
sorbents production on the basis of phosphogypsum-activated petroleum coke with polymer binder, as well as the
flowchart for using crushed coke for refinery industrial effluent treatment from petroleum and mechanical impurities.
