Biomass Conversion Techniques
Pyrolysis is a commonly used technique to convert biomass into biochar, which has a high carbon content and can be used as a precursor for supercapacitor electrodes. Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) involves the conversion of biomass under high temperature and pressure, producing hydrochar with desirable electrochemical properties. Direct carbonization, through controlled heating, can also be employed to convert biomass into carbon materials suitable for supercapacitor applications.
