They contain cancer-causing chemicals, pesticides and nicotine.Once burned, these cigarettes turn into a material containing a number of tiny pores, which gives it the high surface area that makes it capable of storing large amounts of energy.This can be used to coat the electrodes of supercapacitors electrochemical components used to store large amounts of electrical energy creating a super-efficient battery that could be integrated into computers, mobile phones and electric vehicles.The butt-based approach could also help to bring down production costs.After testing the idea, scientists found that the material stored more electrical energy than commercially available alternatives
