“…Hence it is very clear that the hydrogen storage depends on both surface area and total pore volume. It was also reported in the literature [34] that low density AC materials were good adsorbent for hydrogen storage. Increase in porosity on carbon materials leads to lower the tap density and increase the hydrogen uptake [34,45].…”

“…It was also reported in the literature [34] that low density AC materials were good adsorbent for hydrogen storage. Increase in porosity on carbon materials leads to lower the tap density and increase the hydrogen uptake [34,45]. These results indicate that the AC materials prepared using jute fibers with high surface area and micropore volume with low tap density are ideal materials for hydrogen storage.…”

“…The pressure composition isotherms were obtained by change in volume of the sample at a particular pressure. Bulk density of material was used for hydrogen adsorption/desorption calculation [13,34]. The tap density was measured by taking the sample in a known volume container and tapped around 150 times in a smooth surface, till it attains the said volume [45].…”

“…Among these ACs have proved to be one of the most promising adsorbent material for storage of hydrogen due to their availability, low cost and with tunable surface area. Natural raw materials like corn cob [29,30], rice husks [31,32], nut shells [33], oil seeds [34], coffee bean [35], hemp stem [36], corn stalks [37], etc. have been studied for hydrogen storage.…”

Abstract. Activated carbons (ACs) are being used as energy storage material especially for hydrogen storage application. In the present work, AC materials were synthesized from jute fibers, activated and treated using KOH to increase the porosity of samples. These AC samples retained the fibrous structure even after chemical activation at high temperature of 700°C. Channel like structures were formed which helps to increase the hydrogen storage capacity. The surface area of these samples varied from 380 to 1220 m 2 /g due to carbonization and activation treatment. The sample with high surface area of 1224 m 2 /g showed a high hydrogen uptake capacity of 1.2 wt.% at 30°C and 40 bar of H 2 gas pressure. This sample also showed a high pore volume of 0.74 cm 3 /g. These results indicate that the raw material jute fibers can be used as hydrogen storage medium after thermal and chemical treatment which increases the surface area and micropore volume.

Lignocellulosic biomass is a potential raw material that can be used in the synthesis (manufacture) of porous carbon stuffs. The properties of such porous carbon products are affected by the species of the raw material and the manufacturing process, among other things. This paper scrutinizes the related characteristics of lignocellulosic raw materials that indicate potential for the production of porous carbon. Three species were used: pine (Pinus merkusii) wood, mangium (Acacia mangium) wood, and candlenut (Aleurites moluccana) shells, representing softwoods, hardwoods, and non-wood stuffs, respectively. Analyses of their chemical compounds and proximate contents were carried out. Additionally, nano scale scrutiny of the lignocellulosic biomass was also conducted using the nano capable instruments, which consisted of SEM, EDS, XRD, FTIR, and DSC. Results revealed that pine wood had the most potential to produce porous carbon. Morphologically, pine wood afforded the best permeability, whereby at the structure of monoclinic cellulose crystals, there were cellulose-I structures, which contained less cellulose-I structures. Furthermore, pine wood exhibited greater volatile matter content, as confirmed through the FTIR, which greatly assisted the forming of porosity inside its corresponding carbon.
