Interconnected microporous and heteroatom containing bio‐carbon, derived from universal household waste i. e. cooked rice has been investigated as an anode material for lithium and sodium‐ion batteries. Cooked rice derived carbon (CRC), prepared by an economically viable carbonization process, bestowed with the presence of nitrogen atom due to the bacillus cereus bacteria is chemically activated with KOH at different temperatures such as 800, 850 and 900° C. Among the prepared samples, CRC‐900 anode delivers an exceptionally high progressive capacity of ≈1000 mAh g‐1 at 100 mA g−1 for 100 cycles and reasonable capacity of 169 mAh g−1 for 1000 cycles. Further, CRC‐900 anode demonstrates high rate performance by delivering 260 mAh g−1 at 2 A g−1 in LIBs and an acceptable capacity of 78 mAh g−1 in SIBs at 2 A g−1condition. CRC is found to contain micro and meso‐porous structure along with high surface area (1899 m2 g−1) to endorse its suitability to this extend as an anode for LIBs and SIBs. The study illustrates the exploitation of waste‐to‐wealth attempt with an ultimate aim of recommending CRC as a potential anode for energy storage applications on the basis of low cost, cheap, eco‐benign electrode obtained from biodegradable cooked rice.

“…Without involving the strong chemical reagent (e.g. KOH and NaOH) [10,14,16,[27][28][29][30][31] during the synthesis route as well as avoiding the tedious preparation procedures in the templating method [33][34][35], the "curing" method adopted here will present a simple and cost-effective method for the preparation of activation carbon from other biomass. In order to understand the transport kinetics of the PSC and PMC electrodes, EIS measurements are shown in Figure 4.…”

Porous carbon materials derived from the prawn shell (PSC) and prawn meat (PMC) have been successfully fabricated by a simple "curing" method, followed by an annealing process. The PSC and PMC are well characterized by XRD, Raman, SEM and TEM. Electrochemical measurements reveal that PSC and PMC deliver high initial discharge/charge capacities of 1735/878 mAh g -1 and 1132/674 mAh g -1 at 100 mA g -1 and maintain charge capacity retention of 84.2% and 40.3% after 90 cycles, respectively. Moreover, the PSC exhibits a high reversible capacity of 300 mAh g -1 after 50 cycles at 1000 mA g -1 . The outstanding electrochemical performance of PSC and PMC is attributed to the coherent interconnected porous structure and nitrogen doping, which is beneficial for fast penetration of electrolyte, rapid diffusion of Li + and creation of numerous active sites for Li + storage.

“…As a consequence, the stronger interactions between the lithium and nitrogen doped porous carbon might be very beneficial for the lithium insertion. Therefore, great deals of efforts have been performed on the nitrogen doped porous carbon with various shapes [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]. Besides porous carbon, nitrogen doping has been used to generate defects in carbon nanotubes or graphene and provide more active sites for lithium insertion [20][21].…”

“…Therefore, nitrogen doping is a feasible way to improve the lithium storage performance of carbon based materials. To date, several methods have been employed to prepare nitrogen-doped carbon materials such as thermal annealing with ammonia [8], treating with HNO 3 [9] and pyrolysis of nitrogen-containing precursors such as dopamine [10], polymer [11][12][13][14][15], and biomass [16][17][18][19].…”
