“…Given the advantages of affordability and environmental friendliness, it is highly desirable to employ cellulose derivatives as binders, particularly when sourced directly from waste food products. For example, corncobs can serve as the raw materials for both carbon production and the creation of a sodium carboxymethylcellulose binder [ 173 ]. The resulting carbon material demonstrates appropriate interlayer spacing and a favourable surface area, enabling partial bulk insertion and interfacial adsorption of sodium ions.…”

Affordable and environmentally friendly electrochemically active raw energy storage materials are in high demand to switch to mass-scale renewable energy. One particularly promising avenue is the feasibility of utilizing food waste-derived nanoporous carbon. This material holds significance due to its widespread availability, affordability, ease of processing, and, notably, its cost-free nature. Over the years, various strategies have been developed to convert different food wastes into nanoporous carbon materials with enhanced electrochemical properties. The electrochemical performance of these materials is influenced by both intrinsic factors, such as the composition of elements derived from the original food sources and recipes, and extrinsic factors, including the conditions during pyrolysis and activation. While current efforts are dedicated to optimizing process parameters to achieve superior performance in electrochemical energy storage devices, it is timely to take stock of the current state of research in this emerging field. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent developments in the fabrication and surface characterisation of porous carbons from different food wastes. A special focus is given on the applications of these food waste derived porous carbons for energy storage applications including batteries and supercapacitors.

“…In short, the electrochemical properties brought by different locations of the same plant are also different in terms of self‐opening. The pore volume of the material prepared by Bottoni [118] et al . using corncob was about 1.6 times higher than that of the hard carbon material prepared by Ou [37] et al .…”

The increasing demand for sodium‐ion batteries has risen due to sodium resources that are inexpensive and abundant compared with its counterpart of lithium‐ion batteries. Development of anode materials with high performance is central issue for sodium‐ion batteries. Plant‐based hard carbon material is a promising anode material for sodium ion batteries due to its green preparation process, favorable ions transport channel, and special porous structure. Previous studies have not systematically correlated the material's inherent structure limitation with its electrochemical properties, resulting in a complex classification and a lack selection of pretreatment methods. In this review, the intrinsic limitations in the structure of plant‐based precursors are divided into four parts, including impure components, single chemical structure, uncontrollable crystalline texture, and irregular porous structure. The previous pretreatment methods are reclassified, including purification component aiming at plant‐based precursors, optimized structure, and precabornized process aiming at intermediate products. Furthermore, the pretreatment strategies are discussed according to the preferred structures of plant‐based hard carbon and the relationship between structure and performance is systematically expounded. This review provides deep understanding of the mechanism of pretreatment and a guide for selecting appropriate pretreatment strategies to optimize the structure of plant‐based hard carbon for sodium ion batteries.

“…Song et al [38] utilized corn cob as raw material to prepare biomass carbon at different pyrolysis temperatures (1000 °C, 1200 °C, 1400 °C, and 1600 °C), the prepared sample showed higher graphitization and an increase in the number of layers as the pyrolysis temperature increased. Luca et al [39] used a heating rate of 10°C/min to pyrolyze the corn cob at 950 °C. The biomass carbon was used as the anode material for the battery, while carboxymethyl cellulose extracted from the corn cob chemically be used as a binder in the battery preparation.…”

Recently, the difficulties in recycling and environmental pollution caused by metal-based electrode materials have limited the further development of batteries. Therefore, biomass carbon materials, with their environmental friendliness and stable performance, are the key to solving this problem. Many advances have been achieved by researchers for the application of biomass porous carbon materials in batteries. Nevertheless, the same biomass carbon materials in batteries face problems such as low utilization, low yield, and a cumbersome preparation process. This paper thus aims to summarize the recent progress of biomass carbon materials in the field of batteries and provide a detailed description of the battery performance of biomass carbon materials from three perspectives: synthesis, structure and application of carbon materials. We believe that biomass carbon composites are in line with future development and have a broad application prospect. Finally, we will give our in-depth prospect on developing biomass carbon materials.
