Here we review the use of activated carbon, a highly porous graphitic form of carbon, as catalyst and electrode for for energy production and storage. The article focuses on synthesis of activated carbon, hydrogen production and storage, biodiesel production, energy recovery, and the use of machine learning.
We will also show that activated carbons have been extensively studied as hydrogen storage materials and remain a strong candidate in the search for porous materials that may enable the so-called Hydrogen Economy, wherein hydrogen is used as an energy carrier.
The textural properties and surface chemistry of activated carbon can be engineered using acid and base treatments, hetero-atom doping, and optimization of the activation conditions to improve the efficiency of renewable energy production and storage.
Among carbon materials, activated carbon due to its lower production cost, versatile surface chemistry, high surface area, and feasibility of activated carbon synthesis using waste materials has drawn tremendous attention in energy-storage systems as electrodes (Ayinla et al. 2019).
Other catalytic applications of the activated carbon in clean fuel production processes are explored in Table 2. Activated carbon is also applicable in energy storage systems such as electrochemical capacitors and supercapacitors, which are considered the main part of electrical vehicles (Zhang et al. 2021).
Bio wastes of diverse nature are studied to determine their potential as a valuable source in producing activated carbon. Biomass-derived electrodes for supercapacitors and batteries lead to the growing energy storage demands of today's world.
