“…The World Health Organization (WHO) has classified it as a carcinogen and teratogen. 2–6 Thus, it is urgent to develop environmentally friendly materials or innovative technologies for the effective and safe degradation of HCHO gas. There are two strategies for removing low-concentration HCHO from indoor air that have been reported:…”

Technologies for control of indoor air quality are very important to ensure that health and comfort conditions are attained in closed environments. The indoor air quality market is fertile ground for adsorption technologies, both at larger industrial scale and for residential uses. The common strategy to design adsorption technologies considers constant inlet conditions, while for most indoor air control applications, the inlet conditions will change because of the partial removal of the contaminant. This work presents a generic modelling approach, where the adsorption technology is coupled with the indoor environment to be controlled. This approach enables a tailored and more accurate process design and additionally, it can also assist in the physical location of the removal unit and sensors to control its operation. Two different examples of application of this methodology are provided: control of CO2 in tightly closed environments and "peak shaving" of water vapor in bathrooms.

“…The gaseous and liquid adsorption performance of bamboo charcoal and bamboo activated carbon (BAC) have been widely studied because the emerging BC/BAC has shown great potential in environmental purification. Specially designed, synthesized, and modified BC or BAC are applied in air quality improvement to remove formaldehyde [33], volatile organic compounds [34], carbon dioxide [35], sulfur dioxide, and nitrogen oxides [36], or in eradication of contaminants such as heavy metals in water [37] and antibiotics [38,39] in the pharmaceutical industry, and the wastes and leftovers of N-/P-modified bamboo charcoals are valid for soil amelioration [40] and carbon sequestration. Modified bamboo-based activated carbons prepared from bamboo and its processing residue are also used as CO 2 absorbents [41,42] for their favorable adsorption performance.…”

In this work, nitrogen-doped bamboo-based activated carbon (NBAC) was in situ synthesized from simply blending bamboo charcoal (BC) with sodamide (SA, NaNH2) powders and heating with a protection of nitrogen flow at a medium temperature. The elemental analysis and X-ray photoelectron spectra of as-synthesized NBAC showed quite a high nitrogen level of the simultaneously activated and doped samples; an abundant pore structure had also been determined from the NBACs which has a narrow size distribution of micropores (<2 nm) and favorable specific surface area that presented superb adsorption performance. The fcarbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption of the NBACs was measured at 0 °C and 25 °C at a pressure of 1 bar, whose capture capacities reached 3.68–4.95 mmol/g and 2.49–3.52 mmol/g, respectively, and the maximum adsorption could be observed for NBACs fabricated with an SA/BC ratio of 3:1 and activated at 500 °C. Further, adsorption selectivity of CO2 over N2 was deduced with the ideal adsorbed solution theory ((IAST), the selectivity was finally calculated which ranged from 15 to 17 for the NBACs fabricated at 500 °C). The initial isosteric heat of adsorption (Qst) of NBACs was also determined at 30–40 kJ/mol, which suggested that CO2 adsorption was a physical process. The results of ten-cycle adsorption-desorption experimentally confirmed the regenerated NBACs of a steady CO2 adsorption performance, that is, the as-synthesized versatile NBAC with superb reproducibility makes it a perspective candidate in CO2 capture and separation application.
