A sorbent granulate for separation of carbon dioxide from a fluid mixture, the sorbent granulate comprising particles of a ground amine functionalized sorbent material having amine groups chemically bound to the sorbent material surface, wherein the sorbent particles are bound by a binder to form the sorbent granulate, wherein the sorbent granulate has a diameter in a range of 0.1-25 millimeter, and wherein the amine functionalized sorbent material is porous and has, prior to grinding, pores having sizes in a first range, and wherein the formed sorbent granulates comprise pores having sizes in the first range and pores having sizes in a second range, wherein sizes in the second range are at least ten times larger than sizes in the first range, wherein sizes of the pores are measured by means of mercury intrusion and the diameter of the formed sorbent granulates are measured by means of sieving.
