Abstract

Hydrothermal carbonization is an environmentally friendly synthesis technology of carbon material with a simple process.This technology can effectively convert biomass materials into carbon materials,realizing the efficient utilization of biomass.Hydrothermal carbon,with high bulk density,oxygen-containing functional groups,excellent thermal stability and conductivity,has potential application value in the fields of adsorption materials,energy storage materials,catalysts and so on.The hydrothermal carbonization process of biomass was reviewed,with emphasis on the influence of raw material type,reaction degree,additives,and other factors on the structure and chemical properties of hydrothermal carbon.For enriching and expanding the functional applications of hydrothermal carbon,various modification methods were reviewed,combined with the application demand.
