Two-dimensional carbonaceous materials have sparked extensive attention in organic pollutants adsorption due to their unique structure to facilitate the formation of the physical or chemical bonding. Herein, natural two-dimensional porous activated carbon nanosheets with ultra-high specific surface area (2276.44 m² g⁻¹) are prepared by alkaline immersion-assisted circulating calcination techniques from corn straw piths. The prepared nanosheets exhibit rapid tetracycline adsorption capacity (633 mg g⁻¹ within 5 min) and high equilibrium adsorption capacity of 804.5 mg g⁻¹. Significantly, the nanosheets can adapt to a wide range of pH (at least between pH = 3–10) and are almost unaffected by coexisting ions. Mechanism studies and theoretical calculations demonstrate that the rapid and high-efficient adsorption of tetracycline mainly depends on the π-π electron donor receptor interactions. In addition, hydrogen bonding and pore filling was also responsible for tetracycline adsorption. This work provides important guidance for the development of the biobased high-performance adsorbents from agricultural waste.
