The complex composition and recycling process of electroplating sludge are the two major obstacles restricting the recycling of metal resources. In this work, Ni(HCO3)2hollow spheres with unique amorphous structure were prepared via a simple and controllable hydrothermal method using nickel-containing electroplating sludge as raw material and ascorbic acid (AA) as complexing agent. The introduction of AA not only changed the morphology of the sample, but also formed pure phase Ni(HCO3)2. The controllable amorphous structure is beneficial to the diffusion of OH-in the electrolyte. More importantly, its disordered atomic arrangement and metastable structure provide a large number of active sites and ion transmission channels, which improve the specific capacity. Consequently, amorphous Ni(HCO3)2delivers a large capacitance of 599.8 C g−1at 1 A g−1, besides large capacitance, it also exhibits large rate capability (61.02% at a current density of 10 A g−1) and cycle performance (capacitance retention 52.09% after 1000 cycles). Importantly, the recoveries of nickel, iron and aluminum are 95.57%, 99.92% and 92.30%, respectively, indicating that electroplating sludge has a good application prospect as electrode materials for supercapacitors. |
