Abstract: 
The methods of wastewater treatment from heavy metal ions and dyes are analyzed, and the key advantages of powdered magnetically sensitive carbon nanocomposites as adsorbents are shown. Methods for selecting and preparing raw materials and activators for the synthesis of such nanocomposites are considered, and methods for synthesizing nanocomposites are analyzed. The properties, modeling of adsorption kinetics and isotherms, and efficiency of magnetic carbon nanocomposites for wastewater treatment from dyes and heavy metals are described.
