“…[2] It has been demonstrated in the past decades that rational utilization of biomass is of great significance to environmental improvement and energy sustainable development. [3] Natural plants wastes such as fruit-peel, [4] pinecone, [5] reed straw, [6] palm shells, [7] onion, [8] sorghum [9] and those from animals such as bones [10] and furs [11] have been used as precursors for the preparation of carbon materials at high temperature. Investigations indicate that the specific surface area and pore size distribution are main aspects which affect the electrochemical performance of the biomass-derived carbon materials.…”

The environmental impact from the waste disposal has been widely concerned around the world. The conversion of wastes to useful resources is important for the sustainable society. As a typical family of wastes, biomass materials basically composed of collagen, protein and lignin, are considered as useful resources for recycle and reuse. In recent years, the development of carbon material derived from biomasses, such as plants, crops, animals and their application in electrochemical energy storage have attracted extensive attention. Through the selection of the appropriate biomass, the optimization of the activation method and the control of the pyrolysis temperatures, carbon materials with desired features, such as high‐specific surface area, variable porous framework, and controllable heteroatom‐doping have been fabricated. Herein, this review summarized the preparation methods, morphologies, heteroatoms doping in the plant/animal‐derived carbonaceous materials, and their application as electrode materials for secondary batteries and supercapacitors, and as electrode support for lithium‐sulfur batteries. The challenges and prospects for the controllable synthesis and large‐scale application of biomass‐derived carbonaceous materials have also been outlooked.
