| Summary: | Abstract This paper presents a study on the development of carbonaceous battery anode material derived from biomass sources, particularly cornstalk for energy storage applications. The carbonization process was optimized, followed by activation and doping with transition metal oxides like nickel and cobalt to enhance the electrochemical performance of the anode material. Cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry studies were employed to characterize the electrochemical properties, specifically the charge storage behavior of the synthesized materials. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectrum, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller analysis, and scanning electron microscopy were employed to study the impact of doping, surface area, pore size distribution, and surface morphology. The results indicate that doping with metal oxides significantly improves the conductivity and charge storage capacity of the carbon-based materials, making them promising candidates for sustainable battery applications. |
