- Preparation of activated and N-doped carbons derived from pineconesPublication . Farias, A.; Monteiro, A.; Freitas, M.M.; Silva, P.C.(Introduction) The increasing impact of environmental issues has driven the development of increasingly cleaner and renewable processes and products. Biomassderived carbons have gained significant attention due to their high specific surface areas, hierarchical porous structures, cost-effectiveness and widespread availability [1]. Given the growing interest in these materials, the substitution of carbon atoms with heteroatoms (N, B, P and S) within the carbonaceous structure emerges as a mechanism to enhance the material's acid-base character. It can also alter the electronic structure of carbon, potentially increasing its electrical conductivity, chemical stability, and electron-donation properties [2]. This study aims to develop carbon materials from pinecones with high surface area, doped with nitrogen.
