The surface characteristics of different carbon materials: activated carbon, carbon felt, glassy carbon and a porous carbon monolith were inves- tigated. The specific surface area was examined by the BET method with N2 adsorption, the amount and the type of surface oxygen groups by Boehm tit- ration as well as by temperature-programmed desorption (TPD). By comparing the results obtained using BET analysis with those of TPD and the Boehm method, it was found that the number of surface groups was not proportional to the specific surface area. The total amount of oxygen groups, obtained by TPD, is higher than the amount obtained by Boehm's method for porous samples. The inconsistencies between these results originate from the fact that the Boehm method is limited to the determination of acidic and basic groups, whereas TPD provides information on the total number of all surface oxygen groups. In addition, the presence of porosity could reduce the solvent-acces- sible surface in the Boehm method. The TPD profiles of CO evolution showed the presence of a low temperature maximum, below 650 K, which originates from CO2 reduction on the carbon material surface.
