TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of sodium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a high-performance biomass hard carbon and a biological enzyme pretreatment preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the accelerated promotion of global energy transformation and the vigorous development of electric vehicles, energy storage systems and other fields, the battery industry has ushered in an unprecedented period of rapid development. Among them, as the core component, the market demand of secondary batteries presents a high-speed growth trend. Under this background, although lithium ion batteries have long dominated the market due to their high energy density, long cycle life and other advantages, in recent years, under the dual pressure of resource constraints and environmental protection needs, sodium ion batteries, as a powerful supplement to lithium ion batteries, are gradually returning to people's vision and receiving widespread attention.
[0003] The history of sodium ion batteries can be traced back to the early 1980s, when it was initially explored as a potential energy storage technology. However, with the rapid iteration and continuous optimization of lithium ion battery technology, especially the significant progress made in energy density and cycle stability, the research and development of sodium ion batteries once fell into a state of stagnation. This situation fundamentally changed after 2010, with the explosive growth of the new energy vehicle industry, the demand for power battery market expanded rapidly, leading to the shortage of key raw materials such as lithium and cobalt for lithium ion batteries, and the cost rose, which rekindled the hope for the research of room temperature sodium ion batteries.
[0004] Although the commercialization process of sodium ion batteries started late, its unique advantages such as abundant resources, low cost and environmental friendliness make it an important option in the future energy storage field. However, the current commercial application of sodium ion batteries still faces many challenges, among which the high cost of negative electrode materials is one of the key factors restricting its development. At present, hard carbon is the preferred negative electrode material for sodium ion batteries, and the selection of its precursor is diverse, including biomass precursors, sugar precursors, synthetic resin precursors and pitch precursors, etc. Among these options, biomass materials such as coconut shells, straw, corn cobs and other agricultural and forestry waste are considered as the preferred materials for preparing high-performance hard carbon due to their high carbon content, wide raw material sources and low price.
[0005] However, due to the large differences in cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin content between different biomass raw materials, this leads to the lack of stability of the prepared biomass hard carbon products, and also greatly affects the stability and controllability of the industrial production process. Therefore, how to maintain the controllability and stability of the biomass hard carbon preparation process among different biomass precursor raw materials while improving the technical level of biomass hard carbon has become a hot and difficult point in the current research field of sodium ion batteries.

[0115] Further, the biomass hard carbon materials prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were configured into negative electrode slurry according to a mass ratio of hard carbon: conductive agent: binder (8:1:1), and coated on a current collector (copper foil). Subsequently, the slurry was dried and sliced, and a C2032 button cell was assembled in a glove box, and after standing for 12h, it was placed in a new battery test channel for related sodium storage performance testing.
[0116] From the first charge-discharge curve of Figure 1 It can be seen from the first charge-discharge curve of that the high-performance biomass hard carbon material prepared by cellulase enzymatic hydrolysis for 48h in Example 4 has a first coulomb efficiency of 92% and a first charge specific capacity of 366mAh / g at a current density of 20mA / g;
[0117] From the first charge-discharge curves of Figure 2 It can be seen from the first charge-discharge curves of

[0120] The test results of the examples and the comparative examples are summarized in the following table:
[0121]
[0122]
[0123] From Examples 1-15 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the high-performance biomass hard carbon obtained in Examples 4, 8, and 13 has a significant improvement in both reversible charge capacity and first-cycle coulombic efficiency compared to Comparative Example 1 without biomass enzyme pretreatment. Among them, Example 4 as the optimal example of cellulase pretreatment has a reversible capacity of 366 mAh / g and a first-cycle coulombic efficiency of 92%; Example 8 as the optimal example of hemicellulase pretreatment has a reversible capacity of 351 mAh / g and a first-cycle coulombic efficiency of 95%; and Example 13 as the optimal example of laccase pretreatment has a reversible capacity of 356 mAh / g and a first-cycle coulombic efficiency of 93%. Further, the present application combines the optimal treatment and regulation of three biomass enzymes, and adjusts the cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin content of the biomass raw material in turn, and prepares the final Example 16. The high-performance biomass hard carbon material prepared after the adjustment and optimization of the three components has a reversible capacity of 383 mAh / g and a first-cycle coulombic efficiency of 90%, which is greatly improved compared to Comparative Example 1, which directly indicates that the three major element contents in the biomass precursor are closely related to the performance of the prepared biomass-based hard carbon material. By integrating the biomass enzyme pretreatment process, the relative content between the three major elements can be adjusted to prepare a biomass-based hard carbon material with excellent performance.
[0124] Meanwhile, by comparing the enzymatic environment of Comparative Example 2-10, it can be seen that the effect of enzymatic pretreatment is significantly different after changing the pH, wherein when the pH of the enzymatic pretreatment solution is changed to a stronger acidic environment (pH = 4.0) and when the pH of the enzymatic pretreatment solution is changed to an alkaline environment (pH = 8.0), the performance of Comparative Example 2, Example 5, Example 8 and Comparative Example 4, Example 7, Example 10 is significantly lower than that of optimal Example 4, Example 8, Example 13, indicating that in a stronger acidic environment and an alkaline environment, the biological enzyme pretreatment is obviously inactivated and cannot achieve the regulating effect on the cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin components in the biomass raw material. When the pH of the enzymatic pretreatment solution is changed to a neutral environment (pH = 7.0), the performance of Comparative Example 2, Example 5, Example 8 and Comparative Example 3, Example 6, Example 9 is lower than that of optimal Example 4, Example 8, Example 13, but is obviously improved compared with Example 1, Example 6, Example 10, indicating that the biological enzyme pretreatment can play a role in a neutral environment, but the efficiency is low, and the time cost of the biomass pretreatment is great, so the optimal biological enzyme pretreatment environment is determined to be a weak acidic environment with pH of 6.0.
[0125] The above experimental results prove that the biological enzyme pretreatment method adopted in the present application can efficiently and stably regulate the relative content of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin components in the biomass precursor, so that the three components maintain a balance in the carbonization process, thereby preparing high-performance biomass hard carbon with suitable structure and excellent performance. The method of the present application not only has the characteristics of green and efficient process and low environmental toxicity, but also can greatly improve the reversible capacity and first-cycle coulomb efficiency of the prepared biomass hard carbon.
[0126] The above examples are only used to help understand the method of the present application and its core idea. It should be noted that any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations and simplifications made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and principles of the present application are equivalent replacement methods and are included in the protection scope of the present application.
