CO2 sorption at atmospheric and sub-atmospheric pressures is a key step towards carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) and materials capable of fast and efficient CO2 uptake are currently being studied extensively. Carbide-derived carbons (CDCs) show a very high sorption capacity for CO2 of up to 7....
