Abstract

N-doped porous carbon produced via chemical activation of polypyrrole functionalized graphene sheets shows selective adsorption of CO₂ (4.3 mmol g⁻¹) over N₂ (0.27 mmol g⁻¹) at 298 K. The potential for large scale production and facile regeneration makes this material useful for industrial applications.
