Burnt rice hull skyrockets battery power to 700 mAh, doubles storage capacity Rice hulls, often discarded as waste, can be used as a sustainable energy source.

It turns out that properly processed rice hull ash can yield a carbon form, which could outperform graphite in battery applications.

This “hard carbon” has a unique nanostructure that allows it to store more energy than graphite — the current standard in lithium-ion batteries.

Hard carbon from burned rice hull University of Michigan researchers made this discovery by producing hard carbon through the combustion of rice hull ash.
