Therefore, nanotechnology has given more interest to these areas via micro/nanosystems or nanohybrids characterized by interesting composition, significant porosity and texture at nanoscale. In this work, we have produced electroactive nanohybrids based on in-situ Ni mono-hydroxide few layers Graphene oxide \"GO\" using a simple and low cost hydrothermal technique under well-studied thermodynamic conditions (120 and 180 °C growth temperature), for performant supercapacitor devices. We have carried out the structural, morphological, textural and optical characterization of these products and consequently we have specified the relationship between their physico-chemical characteristics and their electrochemical properties for ulterior application. Thus, we have carried out various electrochemical measurements through Cyclic Voltammetry tests and we have marked the important electrochemical properties of these Ni/Graphene nanohybrids in two NaOH electrolyte concentrations (0.1 and 1 M) in order to improve the performance of supercapacitors, which have become a socio-economic issue with this nanotechnological development.

The XRD results indicate that after 20 hours of milling, the FeNi, FeCo, and FeSi phases are completely formed. The lattice deformation of FeSi alloy is 0.7%, and the grain size decreases to 17 nm, 13.5 nm, and 10 nm for FeNi, FeCo, and FeSi, respectively. SEM observations of the powder morphologies at different stages of alloy formation are also conducted. Moreover, elemental maps of Fe, Ni, Co, and Si obtained by EDS experiments confirme the XRD results on the evolution of the alloy formation. Finally, the VSM results showed that the magnetic properties of FeNi, FeCo, and FeSi alloy nanoparticles are influenced by the composition, size, and morphology of the particles.

This combination allows for easy recovery of these nanomaterials and, since the mixture of catalyst and carbon formed is continuously fluidized, it also prevents blockage. Understanding the hydrodynamics is crucial for choosing the optimal operating conditions. Thus, a cold mock-up unit of the same size has been built and used. Since the gases produced by plastic pyrolysis are mainly composed of unsaturated hydrocarbons, the prototype reactor setup has been operated using ethylene as a surrogate molecule. The preliminary experimental results of the reactor operation with ethylene obtained so far are very promising and confirm the operability of the process. Next step is to operate continuously for longer time and reach a production of 1kg/h of carbon nanofilaments.","PeriodicalId":200690,"journal":{"name":"ENP Engineering Science Journal","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122714969","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
