Abstract

A three-dimensional pore structure on activated carbon derived from hierarchically bamboo stem was synthesized in the monolithic form for increased applicability as a supercapacitor electrode. The preparation involved two step carbonizations, using a chemical activation at different concentrations. Subsequently, the morphology, chemical content, specific surface area and pore size distribution, as well as crystalline degree were evaluated with scanning electron microscopy, energy X-ray (EDX), N2 sorption and X-ray diffraction, respectively. Therefore, cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to assess the electrochemical performance, in a two electrode system. The result shows the significant impact of the three-dimensional structure on electrochemical performance, and the optimized sample exhibited specific capacitance of 168.8 F g-1, energy density of 23.44 Wh kg-1, and power density of 84.46 W kg-1.

Abstract

In this study, the activated carbon with enriched nanofiber obtained from free-binder materials. It was conducted tofu dregs carbon nanofiber as electrode material for supercapacitor without the addition of pVdF/PTFE. The chemical impregnation of NaOH, ZnCl2 and H3PO4 at high-temperature pyrolysis in an N2-CO2 environment converted the tofu dregs into carbon coin. Subsequently, the physical properties including, microcrystalline, morphology, element analysis, and electrochemical properties of specific capacitance were investigated. The morphological structure of activated carbon showed high nanofiber density and was decorated by sponge-like pores. In addition, the nanofiber contains oxygen content of 12.70% which can act as self-doping due to the pseudo-capacitance properties. Furthermore, the two-electrode system obtained a specific capacitance of 163 F g-1 in 1 M H2SO4 electrolyte. The results showed that tofu dregs-based activated carbon coins are sustainable and efficient to obtain high-dense nanofiber structure as electrode materials for energy storage applications.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to formulate activated carbon monolith from hazardous waste of cigarette filter butts (CFB) for electrode material monolith design in solid-state supercapacitor application. Potassium hydroxide (KOH) was selected for activation. The ratio of CFB to KOH varied in terms of weight between 1:2 and 1:4, thereby obtaining activated cigarette filter carbon (ACFC). The carbon that has been obtained is designed to be solidly in the form of an additive-free monolith. Monolith-activated carbon is physically characterized to examine thermal decomposition profiles (pre-carbonized), structure, composition, morphology, surface area adsorption, and electrochemical measurements. The optimum precursor was marked with high wettability with self-O-doped of 5.44%.in carbon content of 94.56%. Activated carbon electrodes prepared from ACFCs showed an optimum specific capacitance of ~87.17 F g-1, which is a more ecologically responsible method of producing supercapacitors.

Abstract

A major challenge in the use of supercapacitor energy storage applications is optimizing 3D-hierarchical porous and 2D nanofiber structures to improve the electrochemical performance of colored biomass-derived activated carbon (AC). Therefore, this study aims to synthesize AC from Dracaena Angustifolia (DA) leaves and dregs using a sustainable method through chemical activation and high-temperature pyrolysis. AC was designed to be adhesive-free to maintain the true mechanical properties of the precursor. Research results showed that the sample of DA-dregs-KOH shows optimal results with a specific surface area (317.66 m2 g-1). The electrochemical performance of hierarchical porous carbon treated with 1 M H2SO4 electrolyte in a 2-electrode system had a nanofiber structure with the highest specific capacitance (248 F g-1) at 1 A g-1 and energy density (12.96 Wh kg-1) with a coulomb efficiency 84.1%. Based on these results, DA dreg-KOH based porous AC with hierarchical porous morphology shows significant potential to be used as binder-free electrode materials that can produce high-performance supercapacitors as a new renewable and sustainable energy storage solution.

Abstract

Although ZnO photocatalysts show potential for wastewater treatment, their low efficiency limits the commercialization. To address this problem, we investigated the effect of co-doping ZnO with selenium (4%, fixed) and sulfur (0.5, 1, and 1.5 wt%). The catalysts were synthesized using Matoa leaf extract and zinc nitrate hexahydrate while being subjected to 540 W microwave irradiation. UV-Vis analysis revealed absorption peaks at 340-398 nm with sulfur doping increasing the band gap. XRD confirmed the preservation of the hexagonal wurtzite structure, while FESEM images showed a morphological transformation from nanoflowers to petal flakes with increasing sulfur content. EDX analysis confirmed the presence of S, Se, Zn, and O, while FTIR analysis identified OH groups from the extract in the nanoparticles. BET surface area was found to progressively reduced from 24.58 to 16.86 m²/g with sulfur doping. The co-doped catalyst with 0.5 wt% sulfur (0.5S(4Se-ZnO)) demonstrated the highest degradation of 4-nitrophenol at 99.69%, indicating its applicability in industrial wastewater treatment. These findings indicate that the Se/S co-doped ZnO, prepared via a green synthesis route, holds a strong promise as an efficient and practical photocatalyst for addressing environmental pollution in a sustainable and economical manner.
