Carbonization and H₃PO₄ activation of fern Dicranopteris linearis and electrochemical properties for electric double layer capacitor electrode.

ABSTRACT: Today, the world's climate change is a growing problem, plant carbon sequestration is one of the effective ways to mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gases, mostly carbon gases. Dicranopteris linearis (D. linearis), a common fern species in the tropic or subtropic ecoregions, has been recently recognized as a potential feedstock to produce highly porous biochar. This study aims to enhance the specific surface area (SSA) and pore volumes of biochars derived from the D. linearis by H₃PO₄ activation and examine electrical properties of the activated biochars and their possible usage for the electric double-layer capacitor (EDLC) electrode. The treated raw fern was activated with H₃PO₄ 85% by the three different mixing ratios 1:0, 1:1, an
