Three chitosans with different morphologies have been used (commercial chitosan powder, chitosan in film form and chitosan in globular form synthesized by the freeze-dried method) for the synthesis of biochars. The pyrolytic treatment has revealed that the biochar synthesized from the chitosan formed by the freeze-dried method reaches the highest CO2-adsorption capacity (4.11 mmol/g at 0 °C and a pressure of 1 bar) due to this adsorbent is highly microporous. Moreover, this biochar is more resistant to the pyrolytic treatment in comparison to the biochars obtained from the commercial chitosan and chitosan in the form of film. CO2-adsorption studies at different temperatures have also shown that the adsorption capacity diminishes as the adsorption temperature increases, thus suggesting that the adsorption takes place by a physical process.
