| 總結: | Fabrication of high-performance electrodes from waste biomass has attracted increasing attention among the energy storage and conversion field. In this work, we have synthesized nitrogen-doped activated carbon by a simultaneous pyrolysis/activation method from waste bones. It is found that the specific surface area and pore structure of as-synthesized carbon depends on the carbonization temperature (500-800 °C), and the highest specific surface area is 1522 m2 g-1. The electrochemical properties of Pork bone, Blackfish bone, Eel bone based activated carbon (PBAC, BFAC, EBAC) mainly depend on their micro-/mesoporosity. Three samples PBAC-600, BFAC-600 and EBAC-600, which have higher ratio of micropore surface area and nitrogen content, exhibit enhanced specific capacitance of 263, 302 and 264F g-1 in 6 M KOH electrolyte. Furthermore, the assembled symmetric supercapacitors of PBAC-600 can deliver energy density as high as 7.0 and 26.2 Wh Kg-1 in the aqueous and ionic liquid electrolyte, respectively. Such excellent performance can be attributed to the microporous structure, reasonable pore size distribution and nitrogen self-doping of the activated carbon. This research indicates that waste bones have great potential for mass fabrication of the activated carbon electrodes for energy storage applications. |
