Bimetallic metal–organic framework derived porous carbon nanostructures for high performance membrane capacitive desalination

Porous carbons derived from bimetallic metal–organic frameworks exhibit tunable properties by controlling the ratio of metal ions (Zn and Co) in the precursors. With the optimal ratio of Zn/Co = 3 in the precursors, the porous carbons possess a superior electrosorption capacity of 45.6 mg g⁻¹.
