“…Dai et al summarized the use of lignin/PAN with graphene doped with nitrogensulfur carbon nanofiber obtained by electrospinning for supercapacitor. They mentioned that the high surface area obtained of 2439 m 2 g −1 and good surface morphology of the carbon nanofiber exhibited a supercapacitor with high energy and high-power densities, also ultra-high capacity with cycling stability of 97.8% after 5000 cycles of charge/discharge [138] Cao et al also tested cellulose acetate/lignin-based carbon nanofibers as supercapacitors [72]. The cellulose/lignin-based carbon nanofibers showed a high energy density of 30.2 Wh/kg at a power density of 400 W/kg due to the covalent bond of lignin and cellulose acetate, which give the material good thermal stability, high specific surface area, filamentous morphology, homogenous diameter distribution and high storage capacity.…”

Electrospun Carbon Nanofibers from Biomass and Biomass Blends—Current Trends

In recent years, ecological issues have led to the search for new green materials from biomass as precursors for producing carbon materials (CNFs). Such green materials are more attractive than traditional petroleum-based materials, which are environmentally harmful and non-biodegradable. Biomass could be ideal precursors for nanofibers since they stem from renewable sources and are low-cost. Recently, many authors have focused intensively on nanofibers’ production from biomass using microwave-assisted pyrolysis, hydrothermal treatment, ultrasonication method, but only a few on electrospinning methods. Moreover, still few studies deal with the production of electrospun carbon nanofibers from biomass. This review focuses on the new developments and trends of electrospun carbon nanofibers from biomass and aims to fill this research gap. The review is focusing on recollecting the most recent investigations about the preparation of carbon nanofiber from biomass and biopolymers as precursors using electrospinning as the manufacturing method, and the most important applications, such as energy storage that include fuel cells, electrochemical batteries and supercapacitors, as well as wastewater treatment, CO2 capture, and medicine.

“…PAN is the most common auxiliary polymer thanks to its high carbon yield and mechanical properties (Ding et al 2016 ). Besides PAN (Ruiz-Rosas et al 2010 ; Choi et al 2013 ; Xu et al 2013 , 2014 ; Ding et al 2016 ; Dalton et al 2019 ; Jayawickramage et al 2019 ; Demiroğlu Mustafov et al 2019 ; Dai et al 2019 ; Zhang et al 2020b ; Du et al 2020a ), many other polymers have also been used as auxiliary polymers to enhance lignin spinnability, such as PVP (Ma et al 2018 ; Cao et al 2020 ), PVA (Ago et al 2012 ; Lai et al 2014 ; Ma et al 2016 , 2019 ; Zhao et al 2018b ; Jayawickramage and Ferraris 2019 ; Roman et al 2019 ), PEO (Dallmeyer et al 2010 ; Hu and Hsieh 2013 ; Cho et al 2019 ; Du et al 2020b ), TPU (Culebras et al 2019 ), and PLA (Culebras et al 2019 ). Worth reporting that, to some less extent instead of blending, direct synthesize of lignin and PAN copolymer has been reported as a precursor of LCNFs for energy applications (Youe et al 2016 , 2018 ).…”

Graphic abstract Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based carbon precursor is a well-established and researched material for electrodes in energy storage applications due to its good physical properties and excellent electrochemical performance. However, in the fight of preserving the environment and pioneering renewable energy sources, environmentally sustainable carbon precursors with superior electrochemical performance are needed. Therefore, bio-based materials are excellent candidates to replace PAN as a carbon precursor. Depending on the design requirement (e.g. carbon morphology, doping level, specific surface area, pore size and volume, and electrochemical performance), the appropriate selection of carbon precursors can be made from a variety of biomass and biowaste materials. This review provides a summary and discussion on the preparation and characterization of the emerging and recent bio-based carbon precursors that can be used as electrodes in energy storage applications. The review is outlined based on the morphology of nanostructures and the precursor’s type. Furthermore, the review discusses and summarizes the excellent electrochemical performance of these recent carbon precursors in storage energy applications. Finally, a summary and outlook are also given. All this together portrays the promising role of bio-based carbon electrodes in energy storage applications.

“…Polyacrylonitrile (PAN): Because of the excellent flexibility and fiber formation ability of PAN, Lignin has been blended with PAN to produce nitrogen-rich nanofibers with good plasticity [69]. X. Wang et al [62] blended enzymatic hydrolysis lignin (EHL) with PAN at different PAN/EHL ratios (100/0, 60/40, 40/60, and 30/70).…”

“…Due to the low molecular weight and entangled structure of lignin, it is difficult to produce fine nanofibers from lignin by electrospinning technique. To produce electrospun lignin nanofibers, lignin has to be blended with some additives that can modify the structural units of lignin [57,60,69]. Electrospun lignin-based nanofibers exhibit excellent mechanical stability due to the inherent durability of lignin.…”

Supercapacitors are energy storage devices with high power density, rapid charge/discharge rate, and excellent cycle stability. Carbon-based supercapacitors are increasingly attracting attention because of their large surface area and high porosity. Carbon-based materials research has been recently centered on biomass-based materials due to the rising need to maintain a sustainable environment. Cellulose and lignin constitute the major components of lignocellulose biomass. Since they are renewable, sustainable, and readily accessible, lignin and cellulose-based supercapacitors are economically viable and environmentally friendly. This review aims to systematically analyze published research findings on electrospun lignin, cellulose, and lignin/cellulose nanofibers for use as supercapacitor electrode materials. A rigorous scientific approach was employed to screen the eligibility of relevant articles to be included in this study. The research questions and the inclusion criteria were clearly defined. The included articles were used to draw up the research framework and develop coherent taxonomy of literature. Taxonomy of research literature generated from the included articles was classified into review papers, electrospun lignin, cellulose, and lignin/cellulose nanofibers for use as supercapacitor electrode materials. Furthermore, challenges, recommendations, and research directions for future studies were equally discussed extensively. Before this study, no review on electrospun lignin/cellulose nanofiber-based supercapacitors has been reported. Thus, this systematic review will provide a reference for other researchers interested in developing biomass-based supercapacitors as an alternative to conventional supercapacitors based on petroleum products.
