Towards cost-effective carbon dioxide capture using amine-functionalized carbon materials

Caption

This image created using Gemini Pro, depicts an activated carbon fiber functionalized with amine groups (–NH2) at adjacent positions. This arrangement improves the energy efficacy of key interactions, enabling the desorption of captured carbon dioxide at lower temperatures.
