An electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC) was fabricated using multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and activated carbon (AC) derived from Moringa Oleifera fruit shells as electrode material. The carbonization temperature and the weight ratio of the fruit shells to the activating agent were varied...
