| description | Commercial supercapacitors typically have low energy density, making them unsuitable for high energy demand
applications. Then, the introduction and application of biomass-derived carbon materials have garnered atten
tion in the industry due to its environmentally friendly nature and reliable performance. These carbon materials
are favoured to be used as an electrode material due to their high specific surface area and specific capacitance.
Bamboo biowaste, abundantly available in furniture and disposable utensils manufacturing industries, possesses
favorable characteristics such as high nitrogen content, low oxygen content and a high graphitization degree.
These properties make it a promising candidate for fabricating carbon materials suitable for supercapacitor
applications. Recent studies indicated that bamboo-based supercapacitor has higher specific capacitance and
higher performance than other carbon materials such as coconut shells. Therefore, numerous studies investi
gating this novel technology have been reported. Researchers have also made advancements in incorporating
bamboo-based carbon materials in energy storage systems. The activation process is the key factor in enhancing
the performance of the supercapacitors. However, findings from these studies, which are crucial for further
development of this technology, have been scattered without a comprehensive compilation. Therefore, this re
view paper aims to provide a comprehensive overview of various activation techniques and specific applications
of bamboo-derived activated carbon in supercapacitors. Despite recent advancements, challenges such as energy
density issues and optimization over operating parameters remain. Addressing these challenges is crucial to fully
understanding and realizing the potential of bamboo-derived supercapacitor. |
