X-ray diffraction (XRD) was conducted on an X-ray diffraction system (Rigaku Mini ex 600 Benchtop) with Cu Kα radiation. The aCNS powder was put on the XRD sample stage and a razor blade was used to press the powder until a at surface was obtained and the powder was uniformly and rmly distributed over the sample stage. Any extra powder was carefully removed from the sample stage. The sample stage was then transferred into the center of the XRD instrument for measurement. The start angle and the stop angle were set to be 5o and 90o, respectively, with the scan speed of 3o/min. To conduct XRD measurements of electrodes from battery, the sample preparation was the same as the sample preparation for SEM imaging, and XRD was performed after the samples were transferred out from glovebox into the XRD instrument. pH Measurements of Carbon pH was measured by dissolving 1 g of the carbon into 30 mL deionized water. The solution was then transferred into a round bottom ask and boiled under re ux for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes of boiling, the round bottom ask was removed from the heat source and allowed to cool down to room temperature. After all the carbon particles has sunk to the bottom of the round bottom ask, the pH of the clear liquid at top was measured. Brunauer – Emmett – Teller (BET) Surface Area and Porosity Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) surface area and pore volume were measured by an 2020 Accelerated Surface Area and Porosimetry System from Micromeritics. Before each measurement, the appropriate amount of carbon (~ 0.14 g) was weighed and placed in the instrument for degas at (350 oC). After degassing, the weight of the carbon was measured again and this weight was input into the software for nal surface area and porosity analysis. In the nal analysis, the evacuation time was set to be (6 hours) and dose amount was set to be (10 cm3/g STP). After the measurement was done by the instrument, the surface area and porosity were reported. Volatile Percent of Carbon Volatile % was measured using a high gravimetric sensitivity thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) instrument. The initial weight of the carbon samples was measured before introducing the samples into the TGA instrument. Then the temperature of the instrument was increased to 80 oC in 5 minutes and held at 80 oC for 10 minutes. After the 10 minutes isothermal step, the temperature was increased to 160 oC in 8 minutes and then held at 160 oC for 10 minutes. The nal weight of the carbon was measured and the volatile % of the carbon was equal to the percent difference between the initial weight and the nal weight43. Declarations Acknowledgments part of this work was performed at the Stanford Nano Shared Facilities (SNSF), supported by the National Science Foundation under award ECCS-1542152.

Product and Development Focus for Infinity Turbine
ORC Waste Heat Turbine and ORC System Build Plans: All turbine plans are $10,000 each. This allows you to build a system and then consider licensing for production after you have completed and tested a unit.Redox Flow Battery Technology: With the advent of the new USA tax credits for producing and selling batteries ($35/kW) we are focussing on a simple flow battery using shipping containers as the modular electrolyte storage units with tax credits up to $140,000 per system. Our main focus is on the salt battery. This battery can be used for both thermal and electrical storage applications. We call it the Cogeneration Battery or Cogen Battery. One project is converting salt (brine) based water conditioners to simultaneously produce power. In addition, there are many opportunities to extract Lithium from brine (salt lakes, groundwater, and producer water).Salt water or brine are huge sources for lithium. Most of the worlds lithium is acquired from a brine source. It's even in seawater in a low concentration. Brine is also a byproduct of huge powerplants, which can now use that as an electrolyte and a huge flow battery (which allows storage at the source).We welcome any business and equipment inquiries, as well as licensing our turbines for manufacturing.CONTACT TEL: 608-238-6001 Email: greg@infinityturbine.com (Standard Web Page)
