Organic Waste for Nanomaterial Production for Application of Energy Storage

Le résumé fourni par la source

The growing industrialization and energy demand of modern society have made it crucial to explore clean, sustainable, and readily available energy sources. With the massive accumulation of waste in the ecosystem posing a threat to both the environment and society, engineering and upcycling of organic waste into high-performance materials for energy storage have become a key area of research. This approach focuses on converting organic waste from different sources into efficient and advanced nanomaterials for electrochemical energy storage systems, such as batteries, fuel cells, and supercapacitors. These waste-derived materials demonstrate exceptional properties, such as high surface area, conductivity, and tunable porosity, which are crucial for energy storage. Innovations in nanotechnology have enabled the design of electrode materials that improve energy density, power density, stability, and charge–discharge rates, making significant strides toward next-generation energy storage systems. The chapter further explores the tailoring of the structural and chemical properties of nanomaterials (like silica, activated carbon, CNTs, and graphene) to develop long-lasting and high-capacity energy storage systems. By repurposing organic wastes into functional nanostructures, this work highlights a sustainable pathway to address global energy challenges while promoting environmental sustainability and resource efficiency.
