This reference work complements and to some extent succeeds Adsorption by Carbons Bottani Tascon, 2008, changing the focus to deal with the adsorption aspects of novel, currently deployed, industrially prototyped carbonaceous materials. Research into the adsorption phenomenon has a fundamental contribution to the advancement of basic science. Adsorption also has practical applications in fields such as environment protection and energy storage. Among the solid materials adsorbents used in this process, those constituted by elemental carbon carbons deserve specific scientific scrutiny and have been the subject of numerous recent
