NOVEL METHODS FOR CREATION OF SUB-MICRON BIOCARBON MATERIALS FROM BIOMASS AND THEIR FIELDS OF APPLICATION

摘要

The invention relates to a method of preparing sub-micron biocarbon materials using biomass that is chemically modified with organic or inorganic agents including but not limited to acrylamide, glycine, urea, glycerol, bio-glycerol, corn syrup, succinic acid, and sodium bicarbonate. The use of foaming and heating methodologies which could be either pre or post carbonization and subsequent particle size reduction methodologies for the creation of cost- competitive sub-micron biocarbon particles and fibers for a variety of applications.
