Application of Carbon Nanomaterials in Energy Production and Storage
Authors:-Aryan Kuhar
Abstract-:In this modern world the demand for more sustainable energy production and storage solutions has elevated the interest in nanotechnology, in which carbon-based nanomaterials are particularly interesting in improving energy production systems. This review paper explores the application of carbon nanomaterials, including nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, fullerene etc., in many energy production methods. Their unique properties such as large surface area, high electrical conductivity and high mechanical strength, make these carbon nanomaterials optimal candidates for improving energy storage and generation processes. In energy devices such as lithium-ion batteries, solar cells and fuel cells, these carbon nanomaterials have demonstrated improvement in better charge transport, energy density, catalytic performance and charge/discharge efficiency. These nanomaterials are also developed so there are more cost-effective alternatives to current technology.
