This review focuses on utilisation of Oryza sativa Husk as a source for silicon nanoparticles (Si NPs) that are created via magnesiothermic reduction and used in composite anodes for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). The production of silicon nanoparticles (Si NPs) has been explained and, their electrochemical characteristics, and possibility for activated carbon-decorated silicon nanocrystals (AC@nc-Si@AC) to serve as high-capacity anode materials have been discussed. The study emphasises cost-effective, synthesis techniques for creating environmentally acceptable energy storage technologies with the use of biomass.
