N2 - Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) removal by adsorption from gas streams is crucial to prevent the environmental and industrial damage it causes. Amongst the nanostructures considered excellent candidates as sorbents, porous carbon has been studied extensively over the last years. In the present work we present a synthetic procedure for three high potential sorbents based on carbon cuboids, namely a low-surface-area copper-rich structure, a highly porous aggregate without metal addition, and lastly the same porous carbon decorated with copper. The properties and performance as catalysts of these three sorbents were evaluated by powder X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, thermal analysis, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray analysis, surface area determination through N2 adsorption and desorption, as well as by H2S adsorption measurements.
