How #chemists turned #bourbon waste into #supercapacitors
Hydrothermal carbonization can directly convert #stillage into hard or #ActivatedCarbon. Cossio & Guzman used activated carbon as #electrodes, creating double-layer #capacitors by putting liquid electrolyte between them. Proof-of-concept devices were able to store as much as 48W/kg. Built a hybrid device, with one activated carbon electrode and one hard carbon electrode, stored as much as 25 times the energy per kg
