Coconut shell derived activated biochar-manganese dioxide nanocomposites for high performance capacitive deionization
A Faradaic/electric double-layer hybrid capacitor using coconut shell derived activated biochar (AB) and MnO2 nanocomposite was fabricated for capacitive deionization (CDI) applications. Results of this study demonstrate that AB-MnO2 nanocomposites are superior electrochemical materials for CDI application, which can serve as alternative materials for designing an innovative electrochemical technology for water purification, desalination, and energy storage.
