Abstract:Meso‐ and macroporous carbon materials modified with protonated amino groups (−NH3+Cl−) for aqueous nitrate (NO3−) uptake were prepared by surface functionalization with aminopropylsilane. Although the silane coupling treatment decreased the specific surface area of the carbons, surface modification with the −NH3+Cl− group improved the NO3− uptake capacity of both meso‐ and macroporous carbons. The amount of NO3− adsorbed depends on the specific surface area of the adsorbent; an adsorbent with a larger specifi… Show more
