Ultrafine carbon fiber webs were prepared from oxidatively stabilized electrospun poly(acrylonitrile) fibers, followed by carbonization or by further activation with steam. Capacitive de-ionization was evaluated in the batch mode. It was found that the webs exhibited considerable electrical adsorption, which was enhanced by activation with a faster electrosorption rate and a higher electrosorption capacity.
