“…CO 2 capture, such as amine-modified mesoporous adsorbents (Chen et al, 2013;Sim et al, 2015), silica (Belmabkhout et al, 2009), microporous carbon-based materials (Wickramaratne and Jaroniec, 2013;Kamran and Park, 2020), zeolites (Bae et al, 2013), inorganic-capillary membranes (Besser et al, 2016), porous hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) sheets (Kamran et al, 2019a), and nitrogen-doped carbon adsorbents (Heo and Park, 2015), are being investigated as promising alternatives because of their cost-effective preparation, broad availability, high specific surface area, controllable surface properties, physiochemical sustainability, and minimal energy utilization. Among these adsorbents, porous carbon sorbents, commonly referred to as activated carbons, have demonstrated several advantages and are considered efficient adsorbents for gas uptake, metal recovery, and catalysis (Lee et al, 2006;Liang et al, 2014;Kamran et al, 2019b), because of their high adsorptive capacity, economical processing, easy regeneration, high thermal sustainability, rapid adsorption kinetics, high specific surface area, adjustable porosity, and functionality and low sensitivity to moisture (Zhou et al, 2013).…”
