For the study of adsorptive capacities of paligorskit and for the comparison between them and the adsorptive capabilities o f active carbons in order to create industrial combined sorbents, the authors conducted the research on adsorption of the ethyl impurities with the help of paligorskit, active carbon and combined adsorbents (whereas, active carbons and paligorskit were in the ratio 10:90, 30:70, 50:50). The best results were received when refining aqueous-alcoholic solutions with the help of combined adsorbents. The best results were obtained using a combined adsorbent ratio 10:90.
