Activated carbon (AC) and silica SiO2 are among the important and affordable filter media for gases and liquids due to their highly porous structure and specific surface area. Activated carbon is produced in various forms, namely powder, granules and, more recently, fibers or fibrous matrices. Silicon dioxide is synthesized as a powder from various plant materials. In general, a decrease in the particle size of activated carbons and silicon dioxide to nanosizes leads to a sharp change in characteristics as a result of an increase in the specific surface area. Therefore, this paper considers the synthesis of composite fibers based on polyacrylonitrile (PAN) with the addition of AC components and silicon dioxide SiO2 by electrospinning. In addition, their porous structure was studied. The resulting PAN/SiO2 and PAN/AC composite fibers have a sorption capacity of 0.822 mg/g and 1.93 mg/g, respectively. Thus,PAN/AC have a higher adsorption capacity than PAN/SiO2. The surface morphology and structural characteristics of PAN/AC and PAN/SiO2 composite fibers were studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). In addition, tests were carried out for sorption characteristics by atomic absorption spectroscopy with respect to manganese (II) ions.
