Effect of Rice Husks and Wood Grain as Electrolyte Adsorbers on Battery

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to find out the carbon influence of rice husks and wood grain as electrolyte absorbers on large voltage and battery life. The battery fabrication procedure is as follows: (1) Preparing sixteen used batteries with a 1.5 Volt voltage, (2) Making NaCl solution with percentages of 10; 20; 30; and 40%, (3) Drying rice husks and wood grain until drying, (4) Carbonizing rice husks and wood grain, (5) Smoothing rice husks and carbonated wood grain, (6) Mixing rice husk, wood grain, and electrolyte solution, (7) Remove the contents of the used battery and wash it thoroughly, (8) Insert carbon from rice husks and wood grain. (9) Perform the process of closing the battery with the battery cover, (10) Measuring the battery voltage using an avometer. This research shows that carbon derived from rice husks and wood grain can generate electrical voltage, but the resulting voltage is still low compared to commercial batteries. In addition, batteries with electrolyte solutions that have a salt percentage of 10% provide the most voltage.

Rice Husk for Adsorbing Dyes in Wastewater: Literature Review of Agricultural Waste Adsorbent, Preparation of Rice Husk Particles, Particle Size on Adsorption Characteristics with Mechanism and Adsorption Isotherm

“…We focused on the particle size since the size itself has a direct impact on the availability of surface-active sites. In general, smaller particle size associates with the number of adsorption sites, giving ideas [9] for the possible modification in the adsorption process.…”

Ionic Liquids Based Cocktails as a Composite Redox Electrolyte for Natural Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

“…To obtain a high cell efficiency, an organic solvent must be incorporated into the formulation of the electrolyte [19]- [21]. According to recent studies [22], the ionic liquid compounds that are incorporated in DSSCs can be used to obtain high efficiency.…”
