Horse manure, organic waste from livestock, has been used for the production of nitrogen-doped porous carbons (NPC) which could be applied as functional material. The variety of different NH4OH solution concentrations (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 M) were introduced in hydrothermal treatment as activating agent. Also, the nitrogen precursor was served. Horse manure derived NPC were characterized through varied physicochemical properties including NPC yields, FTIR, SEM, XPS and N2 sorption analyzer to characterize specific properties such as elemental composition on surface, surface functional bonding, physical morphology, and porosity of NPC. In addition, the incorporation of nitrogen dopant into the carbon was intended to further enhance the electrochemical performance.

This paper reports on the role of oxidised carbon nanotubes (oxMWCNTs) present in poly-3,4-ethylenedioxytiophene (PEDOT)/graphene oxide (GOx) composite. The final ternary composites (pEDOT/GOx/oxMWCNTs) are synthesised by an electrodeposition process from the suspension-containing monomer, oxidised carbon nanotubes and graphene oxide. Dissociated functional groups on the surface of graphene oxide play a role of counter-ions for the polymer chains. Detailed physicochemical and electrochemical characterisation of the ternary composites is presented in the paper. The results prove that the presence of oxMWCNTs in the ternary composites doubles the capacitance values compared to the binary ones (450 vs. 270 F cm−3 for PEDOT/GOx/oxMWCNTs and PEDOT/GOx, respectively). The amount of carbon nanotubes in the synthesis solution is crucial for physicochemical properties of the composites, their adhesion to the electrode substrate and the electrochemical performance.
