Scientists convert chicken fat into energy storage devices - EurekAlert

<p>The global move toward more sustainable, green energy has increased power reserves and the demand for energy storage devices. Unfortunately, some materials for these devices can be expensive and environmentally problematic. Producing alternative energy storage devices from things that are usually thrown away could help resolve these challenges. Now, researchers in <em>ACS Applied Materials &amp; Interfaces </em>report a method to transform chicken fat into carbon-based electrodes for supercapacitors that store energy and power LEDs.</p>
