Cover Story: AC with a surface area of 4320.7 m2/g was prepared via a chemical and hydrothermal process. SEM images confirmed the porosity and roughness of its surface. An FTIR study of prepared AC reported decreases in the hydroxyl group (OH-) and the removal of aliphatic bonds of both (C-H) and CH2 and CH3 groups due to thermal and chemical AC modifications. When AC was exposed to CO2 for 60 min in a closed chamber at atmospheric pressure, the adsorption of a 301.1 mmol CO2 (13.25 g CO2) per gram of activated carbon was observed. This adsorption was a result of AC porosity and its surface roughness. While not surpassing the highest recorded adsorption ratio of 920.6 mmol/g, this is still notably high. In addition, the thermal stability of AC was stable at high temperatures, proving that AC could be useful for many industrial applications such as catalysts. View this paper
