Microporous carbon materials are envisaged as efficient contenders for mitigating CO2 level and global climate change by virtue of their rich surface chemistry, high specific surface area, tunable pore structures, moderate heat of adsorption, and facile regeneration. Current work presents a solvent-free activation approach for designing a series of microporous carbons using economically favorable avenue. Synthesized carbon materials possess a high surface area, large pore volumes, and hierarchical meso-micro and ultramicroporous structures. The high CO2 and methylene blue adsorption capacities make these microporous carbons amongst the most promising adsorbents in clean energy and environmental applications. |
