Abstract
In one aspect, a composition is disclosed that includes an agglomeration of a plurality of porous microparticles forming a hierarchically porous material structure. The porous microparticles can be formed of a biogenic and/or a synthetic material. In some embodiments, a plurality of binder can be distributed among the microparticles to facilitate the agglomeration of the plurality of the microparticles.
