This work reports the synthesis of carbon dots (C-dots)from sago industrial waste using thermal pyrolysis approach. The pyrolysis condition was found to govern the carbonisation conversion of bulk sago waste into carbon rich residue that can be further isolated to obtain carbon dots. In order to o...
