The invention discloses a method for preparing carbon microspheres through
hydrothermal carbonization of a
biomass. The method comprises the following steps: stirring and mixing camellia seed
husk powder which serves as a
raw material and deionized water, treating the mixture ultrasonically, transferring the treated mixture into a stainless steel reactor, introducing an
inert gas into the stainless steel reactor to remove
oxygen, putting the stainless steel reactor into an air blowing
drying box, carrying out reaction at a constant temperature, cooling the product of reaction to
room temperature, pouring out the upper-layer liquid, tanking out the
solid, clearing the
solid ultrasonically with deionized water and
ethanol in sequence until the washing liquid is colorless, extracting with ultrasonic
waves and microwaves in the solution of
ethanol in water, filtering the mixture in vacuum, and
drying in a
vacuum drying box to obtain the carbon microspheres. The method disclosed by the invention has the advantages that the
raw material for preparing the carbon microspheres is a
biomass waste which is wide in source and low in cost, the process of preparing the carbon microspheres is simple and is friendly to environment, no poisonous and harmful reagents are adopted in the whole preparation process, and the prepared poisonous carbon microspheres are uniform in size and can be used conveniently. In addition, the method is low in production cost and can realize large-scale production.
