Abstract: This paper deals with adsorption and structural properties of the Czechoslovak diatomite carrier Chromaton N-AW after its modification with inorganic salts, i.e. LiCl, NaCl, and KCl. It has been ascertained that the chemical modification results in a decrease in specific surface and open porosity and significantly affects the adsorption of methanol. The interpretation of adsorption measurements is based on the idea that new adsorption centres arise on the surface of the modified adsorbent.
