Kurzbeschreibung/Zielsetzung

The Li-ion hybrid capacitor (LIHC) system explores the possibility of achieving both high energy and power density in a single energy storage system with an intercalation anode and capacitive cathode. However, to achieve a high power and energy-based system, the properties of the cathode electrode material are vital. Here, bio-waste plant stem-derived activated porous carbon is explored as a cathode for LIHC application. A specific surface area of 1826 m g, enhanced degree of crystallinity, and graphitization results for porous carbon from activation by potassium hydroxide. When employed as supercapacitor material, the device exhibits good rate capability, energy, and power attributes with a specific capacitance of 116 F g (1 A g). Simultaneously when tested for LIHC application the formulated device shows good capacity retention for 2500 cycles with a high energy density of 125 Wh kg at a power density of 69 W kg. The work demonstrates unique, cost-effective strategy to develop a crystalline high surface area carbon from any such bio-waste sources to be employed as potential electrodes for energy storage applications.
