Opis

Having enormous applications in various fields, economical approaches for producing high valued product of biochar/activated carbon from renewable and sustainable novel resources/precursors is the need of the hour. Therefore, a novel approach has been made to prepare such biochar/activated carbon from a wasteland weed biomass; Calotropis gigantea. The novelty of this work is to produce biochar and activated carbon through economical approaches using low cost easily available raw material and cost-effective processing. Since fossil fuel energy is prone to exhaustion, is becoming expensive and has several negative impacts on the environment; researchers/scientists are looking for alternative renewable energy source which can satisfy the upcoming energy demand and can help mitigating environmental issues as well. Therefore, this renewable biomass derived biochar/activated carbon produced were characterized and properties obtained were analyzed to find its suitability for electrochemical applications in energy storage devices, having enormous applications in various fields, economical approaches for producing high valued product of biochar/activated carbon in a low cost method.
