Suhu Karbonisasi Untuk Aplikasi Sel Superkapasitor Fabrikasi Elektroda Karbon Dari Biomassa Biji Palem Putri Dengan Variasi
Biomass-derived porous carbon is one of the most competitive electrode materials
for supercapasitor due to their renewability and sustainability. Electrode materials
derived from biomass for supercapacitors are considered as an effective solution
to the problems of the energy crisis and the environment deterioration. In this
research, the carbon electrode derives from waste of Christmas palm with
carbonization temperature variation. Optimization efforts were made for the
carbonization process in the fabrication of electrodes in order to obtain a high
specific capacitance. Initial preparation was started from the pre carbonization
process at temperature of 200 . The activated carbon powder was converted into
a monolith using a hydraulic press and then followed by carbonization process
with variations in temperature 500 , 600 , and 700 under an N2 gas
environment and activated by CO2 gas at 800 . The results of the pracarbonization
process resulted in a reduced sample mass of 27,27%.
Thermogravimetry shows that thermal resistance temperature of carbon powder is
287 . Microstructure analysis shows that amorphous structure for the activated
carbon electrodes indicated by the presence of the peaks of 2θ around 24º and 44º
with the highest Lc value produced by sampel BPP-600 with a carbonization
temperature of 600 . Specific capacitance was determined by cyclic voltammetry
method and it is found to be as high as 155,04 F/g, 210,44 F/g, and 99,73 F/g for
carbonization temperature of 500 , 600 , and 700 , respectively. The results
showed that the temperature of 600 is the optimum carbonization temperature
for fabrication carbon electrodes from Christmas palm biomass to be applied as
supercapacitor cell electrodes.
