In a world grappling with escalating emissions and the dire need for sustainable waste management solutions, a new trend is emerging – the conversion of waste biomass into biochar. This innovative approach not only tackles the challenge of waste disposal but also holds the potential to significantly reduce emissions while offering a range of environmental […]

Abstract As cheap and renewable sources, the exploitation of biomass resources was of great value in phase change energy storage. In this study, hemp stems were converted into biochars with three-dimensional multi-level anisotropic pores through a temperature-controlled charring process, which were used as supports for polyethylene glycol (PEG6000) to form shape-stable composite phase change materials […]
