“…Biomass graphene or carbon sheets from biomass resources are an appealing two-dimensional material with superior electrochemistry properties because of its ultrathin nanosheet frameworks (2-10 atomic layers) and the mesoporous structure [45,46]. In this study, we have also synthesized GCS with graphene-like structure via a simple thermo-chemical method.…”

“…Recently, the renewable biomass-derived porous carbon materials have attracted intensive attention for their possible applications in Li-ion batteries (LIBs) and Na-ion batteries (NIBs) [9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. These biomass carbon materials have unique nanostructure, in particular, carbon quantum dots (CQDs,＜10 nm) and nanowires, which differ from those of the nanoparticles derived by other techniques [16,17].…”

Even at a high current density (1000 mA g -1 ), it still exhibits a high reversible capacity (750 mAh g -1 ) after 1400 discharge/charge cycles. More importantly, the removal efficiency of chemical oxygen demand of SPBL is up to 83.4% during the synthesis process, which reduce its load to environment and synthetic cost of carbon-based nanocomposite anodes.

“…Additionally, during the electrode fabrication process their re-stacking or aggregation has also greatly hindered their further applications. Surprisingly, some researchers are successful for preparing graphene-like sheets by using biomass (starch [85], wheat straw [26,86], hemp [87], coconut shell [88], inner shaddock skins [89]) as carbon source. As an example, Chen et al [86] developed high-quality graphene sheets with ultrathin nanosheet frameworks (2-10 atomic layers) and graphite-like interlayer spacing (0.3362 nm) from wheat straw via combining hydrothermal and graphitization (Fig.…”

“…On the other hand, the porous biomass-derived carbon can shorten the ion diffusion pathways and offer the increased electrode/ electrolyte interface for the enhanced rate capability. To date, most biomass-derived carbon have been prepared from various biomass precursors and used in anode materials of lithium-ion batteries, such as coir pith [194], cotton [195], wheat stalk [26,86], bean dreg [196], microalgae [197], glucose [198], ramie fibers and corncobs [57], coconut oil [21], sisal fiber [199], green tea [200], lignin [201].…”

Currently, carbon materials, such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, activated carbon, porous carbon, have been successfully applied in energy storage area by taking advantage of their structural and functional diversity. However, the development of advanced science and technology has spurred demands for green and sustainable energy storage materials. Biomass-derived carbon, as a type of electrode materials, has attracted much attention because of its structural diversities, adjustable physical/chemical properties, environmental friendliness and considerable economic value. Because the nature contributes the biomass with bizarre microstructures, the biomass-derived carbon materials also show naturally structural diversities, such as 0D spherical, 1D fibrous, 2D lamellar and 3D spatial structures. In this review, the structure design of biomass-derived carbon materials for energy storage is presented. The effects of structural diversity, porosity and surface heteroatom doping of biomass-derived carbon materials in supercapacitors, lithium-ion batteries and sodium-ion batteries are discussed in detail. In addition, the new trends and challenges in biomass-derived carbon materials have also been proposed for further rational design of biomass-derived carbon materials for energy storage.

“…Currently, biomass‐derived graphene is extensively prepared via a base activation method with high‐temperature pyrolysis. Indeed, this method has successfully produced multilayer graphene from various biomass sources such as peanut shell, populus wood, spruce bark, and wheat straw . Physical characterization showed a stacked multilayer nanosheet and six less well‐defined rings, which still lead to the argument for the formation of either graphite, graphene, or activated carbon structures.…”

Summary Reduced graphene oxide (RGO) has progressed as one of key emerging carbon for catalyst support material. As an alternative to the conventional RGO precursor, biomass Sengon wood was converted into RGO for use as a noble metal free catalyst support in oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). This work intends to reveal the applicability of Sengon wood‐derived RGO in anchoring/doping iron and nitrogen particles onto its surface and to study its ORR performance in a half‐cell environment. Thin‐sheet layer and highly defective (ID/IG) was gradually obtained at elevated pyrolysis temperature of Sengon wood graphene oxide (GO) at range 700°C to 900°C. As prepared RGO was further doped into catalyst (Fe/N/RGO) through the same pyrolysis procedure at a selected temperature after mixing the GO powder with iron chloride and different nitrogen precursors (urea, choline chloride, and polyaniline) at a fixed ratio. The ORR activity reached a current density up to 2.43 mA/cm2, which in conjunction with smooth multilayer sheet morphology and high graphitic‐N content as the active sites. Stability analysis indicated an 85% current efficiency and only 0.03 V reduction in onset potential on methanol resistant test for Fe/ChoCl/RGO catalyst. This study revealed that Sengon wood‐derived RGO successfully supported Fe‐N‐C catalyst which showed comparable oxygen reduction activity to Pt/C.
