Green carbonization of waste coffee grounds into porous C/Fe hybrids for broadband and high-efficiency microwave absorption

Recently great efforts have been focused on designing high-performance microwave absorbers using sus-tainable biomass resources,but there remains a lack of green and efficient fabrication methods.Herein,inspired by natural porous character of biomass waste,we demonstrated a green one-step route to con-vert waste coffee grounds into porous C/Fe hybrids,and further explored their potential applications for broadband and high-efficiency microwave absorption.In this design,the WCG-20-750(incorporated 20 wt%Fe(C5H7O2)3 catalyst and carbonized at 750 ℃)exhibited porous microstructure with the highest char yield of 55.45 wt%.Furthermore,the as-prepared C/Fe hybrids from WCG-20-750 displayed excellent microwave absorption performances.Typically,the minimum reflection loss(RLmin)reached to-52.86 dB and the widest effective absorption bandwidth(EAB)was 6.40 GHz at the thickness of 3.0 mm.This work provides an economically viable and environmentally friendly strategy to convert biomass wastes into value-added microwave absorbers,ultimately making contributions to the upcycling of renewable biomass resources and the fostering of sustainable environment.
