Fig. 1: The preparation of charged-sorbents.

A porous carbon electrode is charged in an electrochemical cell (step 1). The electrodes are removed from the cell, washed with deionized water and evacuated to remove solvent molecules (shown as green circles) to yield charged-sorbents (step 2). The activated carbon schematic is adapted from ref. 33, Springer Nature America.
