The present description relates to activated carbon and methods of making and using the same. The activated carbon is produced from textile and plastic waste materials. The activated carbon may further include graphitic fibers, carbon fibers, CNTs, metals and metal oxides dispersed in the activated carbon matrix. The activated carbon can be in the form of granular manufactures, powder manufactures, nanoparticles, sheets and any other form.

1. A method of converting textile solid waste or plastic solid waste into an activated carbon composite, comprising: adding, to textile solid waste or plastic solid waste, a composite forming additive chosen from metals, metal oxides, and precursors thereof; carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphite fibers,
1. A method of converting textile solid waste or plastic solid waste into an activated carbon composite, comprising: adding, to textile solid waste or plastic solid waste, a composite forming additive chosen from metals, metal oxides, and precursors thereof; carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphite fibers, and carbon fibers;performing a degradation and dehydration step on the textile solid waste or plastic solid waste in the presence of the composite forming additive to form a char; and thereaftersubjecting the char to a chemical or physical activation process at a temperature ranging from 300° C. to 1400° C.;wherein the activated carbon composite obtained is in the form of a composite material structure embedded with metal, metal oxide, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphite fibers, or carbon fibers. 2. The method of claim 1, wherein the textile solid waste or plastic solid waste is free of virgin materials. 3. The method of claim 1, wherein the textile solid waste is chosen from natural fiber, organic synthetic fiber, or a mixed type of fiber. 4. The method of claim 1, wherein the textile solid waste has a form chosen from clothing, furniture, carpets, footwear, towels, sheets, cottons, linens, jutes, wood pulp fibers, kapoks, silks, wools, and hairs. 5. The method of claim 1, wherein the plastic solid waste is in a form chosen from containers and packaging, durable goods, and nondurable goods. 6. The method of claim 5, wherein the containers and packaging are chosen from soft drink bottles, lids, and shampoo bottles; wherein the durable goods are chosen from appliances and furniture; and wherein the nondurable goods are chosen from diapers, trash bags, cups, utensils, and medical devices. 7. The method of claim 1, wherein the degradation and dehydration step is performed using a strong acid chosen from sulfuric acid. 8. The method of claim 7, wherein the degradation and dehydration are performed at a temperature ranging from 100 to 200° C. under vacuum or at elevated pressure. 9. The method of claim 1, wherein the activated carbon composite has the form of the composite material structure obtained by adding a composite forming additive chosen from at least one metal element, metal oxide thereof, or a precursor thereof to the textile or plastic solid waste to produce a metal or metal oxide activated carbon matrix during a physical or chemical activation process. 10. The method of claim 1, wherein the activated carbon composite is in the form of the composite material structure obtained by adding a composite forming additive chosen from carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to the reactants during degradation and dehydration step. 11. The method of claim 10, wherein the activated carbon composite has the form of the composite material structure obtained by adding a composite forming additive chosen from at least one metal element, metal oxide thereof, or a precursor thereof to the textile or plastic solid waste to produce a metal or metal oxide activated carbon matrix during the chemical or physical activation process. 12. The method of claim 10, further comprising thereafter washing the char and thereafter drying or evaporating the washed char before performing the chemical or physical activation process. 13. The method of claim 1, wherein the chemical or physical activation process is performed in the presence of graphite fibers or carbon fibers. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein the activated carbon composite is in the form of the composite material structure obtained by adding a composite forming additive chosen from carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to the reactants during degradation and dehydration step. 15. The method of claim 1, wherein the activated carbon composite has pores and surface area are measured using density functional theory (DFT), wherein at least about 40% of the total number of pores have a size ranging from about 2 to about 50 nm; and wherein the activated carbon composite has a surface area ranging from 900 to 3,000 m2/g. 16. The method of claim 15, wherein the activated carbon composite has a pore volume ranging from 0.400 to 0.900 cc/g. 17. The method of claim 1, wherein the activated carbon or composite is further treated in a post-activation process. 18. The method of claim 17, wherein the activated carbon composite is grind milled to produce an average particle size ranging from 3 to 50 μm. 19. The method of claim 18, further comprising fabricating an electrode by dissolving an optional binder in a solvent or dispersing the optional binder in a dispersion medium with the grind milled activated carbon composite to form a composition, applying the composition to a collector, and thereafter removing the solvent or the dispersion medium by drying, leaving behind the binder and activated carbon composite on the collector. 20. The method of claim 17, wherein the activated carbon composite is in a form chosen from batteries, fuel cells, lead acid batteries, electrodes, supercapacitors, pseudocapicators, ultrabatteries, flow battery, adsorbents, composites, and conductive materials.
