Abstract

Insecurity and scarcity of resources lead to war and conflict as seen in Ukraine and Gaza. To prevent the dangerous effects of resource crises, especially, energy, it is imperative to invent energy sources at a war footing.The present review article is a serious attempt in that path. Super capacitors, especially, the electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs) are potential energy storage devices that could be a substitute to fossil fuels. Yet, the challenges are the sustainability, economic viability and environmental friendliness apart from the far far higher expectations pertaining to the electrochemical performance (volumetric capacitance value as high as 600 F/cm3). The afore mentioned challenges can be surmounted by using the electrodes for super capcitors based on peculiar carbon materials derived from renewable sources like biomass with high spin concentration (a parameter indicative of electrical conductivity), rich in hetero atom (nitrogen, oxygen and sulphur) functionality and favourable textural properties. Based on the existing challenges in the field, it is proposed to exploit waste land weeds, native of India, namely, Calotropis gigantea, Ipomoea carnea as well as agricultural wastes from Borassus flabellifera and Limonea ascidissima for the production of exotic carbon materials with high spin concentrations for EDLC electrode applications.
