description Advanced carbon nanomaterials have been widely applied in various fields such as microelectronics, energy storage, catalysis, adsorption, biomedical engineering, and material strengthening. With the increasing demand for porous carbon nanomaterials, many studies have explored obtaining porous carbon nanomaterials from biomass, which is highly abundant. Pomelo peel, a type of biomass rich in cellulose and lignin, has been widely upgraded into porous carbon nanomaterials with large yield and significant applications. Here, we systematically review the recent progress in pyrolysis, activation, and applications of synthesizing porous carbon nanomaterials from waste pomelo peels. Moreover, we provide a perspective on the remaining challenges and potential future research directions.
