Description

Preparation method and application of nitrogen-doped porous biomass carbon
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of electrocatalytic materials of fuel cells, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of nitrogen-doped porous biomass carbon.
Background
With the increasing environmental pollution problem and the increasing consumption of traditional fossil fuels, the development of clean, efficient and sustainable energy becomes an important research topic for today's scientists. The fuel cell is a device capable of directly converting chemical energy of fuel into electric energy, has the advantages of high energy conversion efficiency, rich fuel source, low pollution and the like, and becomes a novel green energy technology with the greatest development prospect. Nowadays, with the rapid development of new energy automobile industry, people are urgently needed to develop a green, environment-friendly, economical and practical high-performance fuel cell for automobile power. Among them, the electrocatalyst is a key part of the fuel cell, and the current electrocatalyst for cathode oxygen reduction reaction in the fuel cell is mainly based on the noble metal platinum-based catalyst, but unfortunately, the platinum has limited reserves on the earth, is expensive at scrupulously and respectfully, and has a large loading on the cathode. In addition, platinum-based materials are limited by other factors, such as reduced performance and poor stability due to methanol poisoning, which greatly impede the commercialization of fuel cells. Therefore, the composite material electrocatalyst which is low in preparation cost and has good catalytic activity, stability and methanol resistance has important significance for rapidly realizing large-scale commercial application of fuel cells.
In recent years, with the continuous development of material science, more and more carbon materials with high electrochemical performance are reported, such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, ultrathin carbon nanosheets, super conductive carbon black, hollow carbon spheres and the like. These carbon materials can be directly applied to the cathode reaction of a fuel cell by using the doping atoms N, S, P and B as an electrocatalyst, and can also be used as a carrier for some metals, metal oxides, metal sulfides and the like. At present, the electrocatalytic oxygen reduction performance of some non-noble metal doped carbon materials exceeds that of a platinum-based catalyst, the price of the platinum-based catalyst is lower than that of platinum, but the price of the platinum-based catalyst is still higher, and the preparation process is complex and is not suitable for large-scale commercial application.
Nearly 1400 billion worldwide of waste biomass from agriculture and forestry every year, and how to make reasonable use of this biomass has become a research hotspot. Compared with other carbon materials which are still in research level, the preparation process of the biomass carbon is simple, low in cost and sustainable. Therefore, the development of a biomass carbon material suitable for use as a fuel cell catalyst is of great importance in the realization of recycling of waste biomass and large-scale commercialization of fuel cells.
