When the adoptive dad dies will his estate be given to his biological children or will the estate be given to the person who is named in the will?

The adopted child has the same rights as the biogical children, if there is no will. If there is a will, the court will insure that the desires of the testator are followed. The court may make adjustments if the will was written before the adoption.

How does an adult disown an Adoptive parent to protect there kids?
An adult can't disown another adult. Divorce is about the only way or to just not have anything to do with another adult anymore. Your question needs a lot more clarifying as it isn't really clear in meaning.Since the person is an adult they can simply refuse to see their adoptive parents or let their children see their adoptive grandparent. If the adoptive parents continue to harass or interfere in any way with the safety of the adult's children then a restraining order can be placed upon the adoptive parent.Also, the issue isn't adoptive or natural in regards to the parent. The bottom line is that if you have someone in your life you don't want your kids to be around that is your choice as a parent. Them being adoptive parents is irrelevant.
Do biological and adopted children have equal rights to the estate of deceased parents?
The same rights, unless a will states a differently. * In any US state it depends upon whether the person died intestate or if there was a valid Will. There are no laws that require a parent to leave any assets or property to children whether said children are biological or adopted. That being the case a parent(s) can legally exclude any or all children from a Will if they so choose. If the person dies without a Will the state's probate succession laws apply and adopted children are treated the same as biologcial children.
