Phenol and p-nitrophenol (PNP) are priority pollutants widely present in wastewater. Developing superior or low-cost sorbents for their removal would be of great benefit. Here, corncob residues (CCR) were converted to hydrochars via hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) and further upgraded to carbon materials by thermal activation in an N-2 atmosphere. The influence of HTC conditions including the temperature, residence time, and CCR/water weight ratio on the material properties and their performance for removing phenol and PNP from water were investigated and compared with those that were obtained from pyrochar (directly pyrolyzed CCR). Hydrochars showed lower adsorption capacities for phenols than pyrochar. The initial hydrothermal treatment at 220 degrees C and 2 h resulted in an improved porosity and 4- to 5-fold higher adsorption capacities for phenol and PNP compared with the pyrochar. However, hydrochars prepared at 250 degrees C or with a prolonged residence time (4 and 6 h) could not be upgraded to high performance carbon materials by thermal activation. The adsorption isotherms of both phenols on the best performance material were well correlated by the Sips model.
