Electrochemical energy storage devices, such as supercapacitors and batteries, have been proven to be the most effective energy conversion and storage technologies for practical application. However, further development of these energy storage devices is hindered by their poor electrode performance. Carbon materials used in supercapacitors and batteries are often derived from nonrenewable resources under harsh environments. Naturally abundant biomass is a green, alternative carbon source with many desired properties. This review article presents state of the art of renewable carbon materials derived from natural biomasses with an emphasis on their applications in supercapacitors and lithium-sulfur batteries. IMPACT STATEMENTThis review paper provides a comprehensive understanding for obtaining renewable carbons from natural biomass precursors via various activation methods for electrochemical energy storage application, especially for supercapacitor and lithium sulfur battery.

“…The production of carbon adsorbents from biomass precursors involves either physical or chemical activation [14]. In chemical activation the precursor is carbonised in the presence of a chemical agent (KOH, NaOH, H 3 PO 4 , K 2 CO 3 , ZnCl, etc.).…”

Sustainable carbon adsorbents have been produced from biomass residues by single-step activation with CO 2 . The activation conditions were optimised to develop narrow micropores in order to maximise the CO 2 adsorption capacity of the carbons under post-combustion conditions. The equilibrium of adsorption of pure CO 2 and N 2 was measured between 0 and 50 ˚C up to 120 kPa for the outstanding carbons. The CO 2 adsorption capacity measured at low pressures is among the highest ever reported for carbon materials (0.6-1.1 mmol g -1 at 15 kPa and 25-50 ˚C), and the average isosteric heat of adsorption is typical of a physisorption process: 27 kJ mol -1 . Dynamic experiments carried out in a fixed-bed adsorption unit showed fast adsorption and desorption kinetics and a high CO 2 -over-N 2 selectivity. These adsorbents are able to separate a mixture with 14 % CO 2 (balance N 2 ) at 50 ˚C, conditions that can be considered as representative of post-combustion conditions, and they can be easily regenerated.

“…Wastes are carbonized to be applied to soil modifiers and humidity materials, and, moreover, activated carbons are produced from raw materials containing rich carbon [18][19][20][21][22]. In the present work, the finely grinded biomass charcoal powder (BCP) was prepared from plant biomass wastes such as dumped adzuki bean, bamboo, and wood by pyrolysis without combustion under nitrogen atmosphere and comminution with a jet mill.…”

Thermal stability of lysozyme adsorbed on biomass charcoal powder (BCP), which was prepared from plant biomass wastes such as dumped adzuki bean, bamboo, and wood by pyrolysis without combustion under nitrogen atmosphere and comminution with a jet mill, was examined. Adsorbing lysozyme on BCP could sufficiently prevent proteins from denaturing and aggregating in an aqueous solution at high temperatures, and enhanced the refolding of thermally denatured proteins by cooling treatment. The remaining activities of lysozyme adsorbed on BCP of adzuki bean exhibited 51% by cooling treatment after the heat treatment at 90˚C for 30 min, although that of native lysozyme was almost lost under the same experimental conditions. The thermostabilization effect of BCP on the remaining activity of adsorbed lysozyme was markedly dependent upon the kind of plant biomass wastes.
