P,N-doped nickel–carbon nanofibers derived from ammonium phosphate for efficient glycerol electrooxidation and renewable power generation from biodiesel waste

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: at 1.0 M glycerol. Notably, this study demonstrates that glycerol that is collected as a waste by-product from biodiesel production can be utilized as a viable new renewable energy source, valorizing low-value residues to clean electricity. The developed P,N-doped Ni-CNFs thus provide a sustainable route for glycerol valorization and circular bioenergy generation through alkaline fuel cell technology.
