 CONCLUSSION

Based on the result of the research and the description of the

discussion that have been presented, it can be concluded that
the optimum ratio in the manufacture of aluminum-ion
rechargeable batteries based on activated charcoal of corncobs
waste is 75% activated corncobs, 25% polypyrrole catalyst (MnO2),
and NaCl 4,5% with the optimum current capacity in the first hour
of 66.50 mA. This is mainly because at this point the electrolyte is still
wet which allows the electrons to move. While the value of the
optimum voltage in the first two hours with a discharge voltage is
2.45 Volts
