■概要：Nano- and micro-structured porous carbons are mostly synthesized from petrochemical precursors, synthetic polymers, and natural biomass. Rather than replacing materials made from fossil resources, biomass derived materials exhibit new properties complementing and very often outperforming their fossil counterparts. While the most sustainable precursor for synthesizing carbon structures is still under debate, biomasses present themselves as strong contenders in the field, attributed to their natural abundance, surplus hydrogen and carbon contents, and intrinsic functionalities associated with their structure. Hence, remarkable efforts have been made to synthesize porous carbons from abundant biomasses such as coconut shells, plant leaves, nutshell, wheat straw, and lignins. Depending on the biomass plant species, lignin accounts for approximately 15–40% of the dry weight of every plant, the polysaccharides, mainly cellulose and hemicellulose, make up the rest. In particular, lignin is the richest natural aromatic polymer in plants, which can be obtained from woods, and even from the industrial waste like paper mill effluents. Despite the differently existing change in molecular structures, in lignins, they all have high carbon content (60-75wt%) and thus can provide high yield after pyrolysis, essential synthesis step of electrically conductive carbons. Hence, lignin contains high purity carbon content, compared to other precursors with high specific surface area have been produced from various sources of biowaste materials because of their availability and cost effectiveness. Moreover, they tend to possess high surface area, complex pore structure, enriched heteroatoms, and various oxygen-containing functional groups in the carbon network, rendering advanced applications in environmental protection, energy storage and conversion devices, and sensors. This talk will cover the preparation of carbon-based materials (Porous carbons, Meso-porous carbon spheres, Carbon fibers) through benign processing methods such as hydrothermal carbonisation and electrospinning for electrochemical sensors, and energy storage applications.
