    The author addresses the Hamiltonian formulation of Lax equations in the context of Poisson algebras. A natural family of compatible Poisson structures on the full algebra is constructed. The result is formulated along the lines of the \(r\)-matrix approach where Poisson structures are defined either on Lie algebras or their duals, or on Lie groups. The results are applied to the particular case of the Benny hierarchy, the dispersionless Toda lattice hierarcchy, the dispersionless KP and modified KP hierarchies, the dispersionless Dym hierarchy etc.
