Engaging nanoporous carbons in “beyond adsorption” applications: Characterization, challenges and performance

Abstract: This paper addresses the challenges of explaining the behavior of porous carbons in cutting-edge applications related to energy storage, catalysis, photocatalysis, and advanced separation based on reactive adsorption. It is a summary of the outcomes of the extensive discussion which took place during the workshop "Beyond Adsorption-II: new perspectives and challenges for nanoporous carbons," organized as a satellite event to the International Carbon Conference on July 20 th 2019 in New York. It is not our inte… Show more

“…This methodology allows the fine control of the type and amount of surface groups introduced on carbon materials by adjusting the concentration of oxidizing agent employed in the treatment (HNO 3 concentration in the range 0.01-0.30 mol L −1 ), as determined by different characterization techniques. This distinctive feature allowed establishing correlations between both the synthesis conditions and the oxygen-containing surface functionalities introduced on the MWCNTs; and the type and amount of those functionalities and the recoveries obtained for the 8 target OMPs; while employing much lower concentrations of oxidizing agent than those previously reported with similar hydrothermal methodologies [23][24][25][26] . Therefore, the novelty of this study relies on (i) the development of a systematic study, upon application of a controlled HNO 3 hydrothermal oxidation methodology to pristine MWCNTs; but also on (ii) the use of ethanol as elution solvent in the SPE procedure, when using MWCNT cartridges; and (iii) the study of metaflumizone for the first time in real water compartments.…”

“…Briefly, TPD is a well-established advanced characterization technique assuming that all oxygen-containing surface groups are decomposed into CO 2 and CO upon heating under controlled operating conditions 28 . In this case, a low heating rate of 10° C min −1 , and a high helium flow of 25 cm 3 min −1 were set to minimize secondary reactions during the experiments 26 , 28 . The mass signals m/z = 28 and 44 were monitored during the thermal analysis, the corresponding TPD spectra being obtained.…”

“…Hence, when activated at 800 °C, the aerogel had a greater specific area than that activated at either 700 °C and 900 °C. It should be noted that the choice of appropriate characterization techniques and testing parameters is critical in obtaining data that accurately account for the behavior of these complex structures [ 41 ].…”
