This is the most curious potential use of hemp I’ve seen to date. An engineering professor from Clarkson University presented research at the American Chemical Society in San Fransisco this week indicating that hemp can be used to power supercapacitors, a type of high-tech battery. According to Dr. David Mitlin, heating hemp fiber long enough results in the creation of carbon nanosheets that can be used as electrodes. Apparently using hemp as a carbon source is about as effective as using graphene, but 1,000 times less expensive
