Part of the book series: Green Chemistry and Sustainable Technology ((GCST))

Abstract

Porous carbons play an important role in CO2 adsorption and separation due to their developed porosity, excellent stability, wide availability, and tunable surface chemistry. In this chapter, the synthesis strategies of porous carbon materials and evaluation of their performance in CO2 capture are reviewed. For clarity, porous carbons are mainly classified into the following categories: conventional activated carbons (ACs), renewable-resources-derived porous carbons, synthetic polymer-based porous carbons, graphitic porous carbons, etc. In each category, macroscopic and microscopic morphologies, synthesis principles, pore structures, composition and surface chemistry features as well as their CO2 capture behavior are included. Among them, porous carbons with targeted functionalization and a vast range of nanostructured carbons (carbon nanofibers, CNTs, graphene, etc.) for CO2 capture are being created at an increasing rate and are highlighted. After that, the main influence factors determining CO2 capture performance including the pore features and heteroatom decoration are particularly discussed. In the end, we briefly summarize and discuss the future prospectives of porous carbons for CO2 capture.
