In Situ N, O Co-Doped Nanoporous Carbon Derived from Mixed Egg and Rice Waste as Green Supercapacitor.

The conversion of nitrogen-oxygen-rich biomass wastes into heteroatomic co-doped nanostructured carbons used as energy storage materials has received widespread attention. In this study, an in situ nitrogen-oxygen co-doped porous carbon was prepared for supercapacitor applications via a two-step method of pre-carbonization and pyrolytic activation using mixed egg yolk/white and rice waste. The optimal sample (YPAC-1) was found to have a 3D honeycomb structure composed of abundant micropores and mesopores with a high specific surface area of 1572.

N, O co-doped porous carbon derived from antibiotic fermentation residues as electrode material for high-performance supercapacitors.

With the widespread use of antibiotics, the safe utilization of waste antibiotic fermentation residues has become an urgent issue to be resolved. In this study, N, O co-doped porous carbon was prepared using fresh oxytetracycline fermentation residue under the mild activation of the green activator KCO. The optimal sample exhibited a 3D grid carbon skeleton structure, excellent specific surface area ( = 948 m g), and high nitrogen and oxygen content (N = 3.

Effective CO capture by in-situ nitrogen-doped nanoporous carbon derived from waste antibiotic fermentation residues.

It is of great environmental benefit to rationally dispose of and utilize antibiotic fermentation residues. In this study, oxytetracycline fermentation residue was transformed into an in-situ nitrogen-doped nanoporous carbon material with high CO adsorption performance by low-temperature pyrolysis pre-carbonization coupled with pyrolytic activation. The results indicated the activation under mild conditions (600 °C, KOH/OC = 2) was able to increase micropores and reduce the loss of in-situ nitrogen content.
