BIOMASS-BASED SUPERCAPACITORS Authoritative resource addressing the fundamentals, design, manufacturing, and industrial applications of supercapacitors based on biomass Biomass-Based Supercapacitors presents a systematic overview and recent developments in the research, design, and fabrication of supercapacitors using biomass, discussing fundamentals, advancements, industrial applications, and the manufacturing process of biomass-derived supercapacitors. The text also considers environmental and economic aspects of the technology, along with biomass-based supercapacitors in the context of circular economy. Written by a team of international experts in the field of supercapacitors, Biomass-Based Supercapacitors covers sample topics such as: * Basic foundational knowledge surrounding supercapacitors, electrochemical techniques for supercapacitors, and different types of supercapacitors * Biomass derived electrode materials for supercapacitors, such as activated and non-activated carbon, carbon from pretreated biomass, carbonate salts-activated carbon, and more * Electrolytes, separators, and packaging materials for supercapacitors using biomass and binding materials from biomass for supercapacitors * Future outlooks and challenges for the development of biomass-based supercapacitors, from the lab to practical applications in industry Biomass-Based Supercapacitors is an excellent resource for academic researchers and industrial scientists working in the areas of supercapacitor fabrication, energy materials and energy storage devices, electrochemistry, materials science, biomass conversion, green chemistry, and sustainability.

Preface

Due to recent technological developments energy demands are rising with time, and our planet currently faces enormous energy-related challenges, including fossil fuel consumption and CO2 emission. Renewable energy resources provide a considerable alternative to meet global energy demands. However, due to its time-dependent operations, a powerful energy storage system is required that can store vast amounts of energy in a short time. In this regard, supercapacitors based on biomass materials have recently received tremendous attention. A supercapacitor is an energy storage device with high energy and power densities and can be completely charged in seconds. Supercapacitors can be developed to store renewable energy on a larger scale by carefully selecting electrode materials and electrolytes and using cost-effective and simple preparation methods. Supercapacitors are now a reality in the market and are used in various wearable and automobile systems. When intermittent renewable sources are added to the energy mix, supercapacitors can also help stabilize the output energy and power. Supercapacitors are currently commercially accessible; however, they still need to be improved, mainly to increase their energy density. In addition to enhancing electrode materials, electrolytes present, and system integration, a thorough comprehension of their properties and precise operating principles is required. All of these issues over the decade greatly influenced both academia and business.

One fundamental technical and financial development is turning biomass into energy, transport, and storage. R&D and industrial applications for collecting all types of biomass resources have made significant progress in recent years. All the non-fossilized biological materials on Earth are referred to as biomass, including animal and plant wastes, agricultural residues, industrial residues, food wastes, municipal wastes, forest residues, and agricultural residues. Biomass has been utilized as a renewable resource for both energy and non-energy purposes, including the production of fuels and power as well as uses in agriculture and industry. As a result, biomass meets roughly 10% of the global energy demand and 35% of that in developing nations. Biomass and its derivatives have increased as science and technology have advanced, not only for use in producing energy and fuel but also in applications such as energy storage, sensors, and catalysis. Producing electrodes, electrolytes, binder materials, separators, and packaging materials from biomass has sparked a prospective interest in developing electrochemical supercapacitors.

Our book, Biomass-Based Supercapacitors, provides extensive knowledge about the developments of supercapacitors, with a complete package of using biomass-based materials and their various industrial applications. No other thorough book has dealt extensively with the subject of biomass-based supercapacitors. A comprehensive study is necessary due to the new concepts that have emerged over the last few years, including a better explanation of how biomass can efficiently be utilized in developing high-performance supercapacitors. This book has been specifically designed to satisfy the academic and scientific needs of students, aspiring researchers, and material scientists working in the area of biomass-based materials and their numerous applications in the field of electrochemical energy storage devices. The book was written in collaboration with experts in the field of supercapacitors from around the world, and state-of-the-art studies are covered in detail. This book is structured into several sections that discuss different aspects of biomass in the field of supercapacitors. We are confident that this book will satisfy all of needs and expectations. There are 26 chapters in the book: the first three chapters being devoted to an introduction to biomass, the environmental aspects for utilization in supercapacitors, and circular economy. The next three chapters explain the basic concepts, fundamental electrochemical principles, electrochemical characterization methods, and fundamental supercapacitor attributes to enable reading the book without any prior knowledge. Afterward, fifteeen chapters are devoted to very important component of supercapacitors i.e., biomass-derived carbonaceous electrode materials, including non-activated carbon, carbon from pretreated biomass, carbonate salts-activated carbon, KOH/NaOH-activated carbon, chloride salt-activated carbon, CO2-activated carbon, steam-activated carbon, hard carbon, carbon nanofibers, graphene, nitrogen-doped carbon, sulfur-doped carbon, composites of biomass-derived carbon and metal oxides, composites of biomass-derived materials and conducting polymers, and composites of biomass-derived materials and conductive materials excluding conducting polymers. Next, three further chapters explains the production of supercapacitor’s electrolytes, separators, binding agents, and packaging materials from biomass, and the last two chapters provide a comprehensive insight into the industrial applications, future directions, and challenges in biomass-based supercapacitors. Each chapter strives to provide the most comprehensive information possible using everyday language.

We are pleased that we were able to bring together the top experts in biomass-based supercapacitors research and technology in one book. They all graciously consented to offer their time to write chapters, for which we are grateful. We would also like to thank the Wiley team for their patience and for providing us with this amazing opportunity to provide an excellent platform for researchers and students working in electrochemical energy storage. Finally, we would like to dedicate this book to our teachers and parents, who would be incredibly proud of our small contributions to assist in resolving global issues facing humanity.
