Designing and production of sustainable hybrid energy storage system

This project focuses on fundamental studies of hybrid energy storage by using cheap non-toxic metals and biomass derived carbon as electrodes in presence of aqueous electrolytes.

Background

Consideration of sustainable ways for industrial production of energy storage is an important aspect since conventional techniques has several drawbacks including adverse health consequences and environmental pollution. Therefore, development of clean and efficient alternative energy resources are one of the important concern during present circumstances.

Aims and objectives

Project plan

So far, we synthesized materials and investigated their properties including electrochemistry. Addition to this, various deposition techniques for electrode fabrication has studied and optimization is in process. We are working on metal-carbon capacitor by preserving main attractive properties of electrochemical capacitors. Our future work based on findings and that focuses sustainable production of micro as well as macro energy storage devices on industrial scale.

Applied interdisciplinarity

This project is overall collaborative work that involves diversity aspects of material behaviour, effect on environment as of sustainability perspective and development of production technologies based on other factors. Therefore, it draws knowledge from other fields including energy technology and production engineering to be able to fulfil the demands of project by crossing the limitations.
