Good microbial affinity of phenolic carbon felt as an efficient anode for microbial fuel cells
Bioelectrochemistry, 2021Phenolic carbon felt (PCF) is a three-dimensional material with a simple manufacturing process and low cost. To investigate the application of PCF as an anode material for use in microbial fuel cells (MFCs), we employed PCF as the anode material for the first time in MFCs that were carbonized at different temperatures.

Beyond microbial carbon use efficiency
2023Microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) is defined as the proportion of microbial biomass growth C versus substrate C uptake, and thus provides a useful measure of microbially driven accumulation and loss of soil organic carbon (SOC) 1. In a recent study published in Nature 2, the authors use a data-driven machine learning approach to conclude that CUE ...

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 2013
Microbial electrosynthesis cells (MECs) are devices wherein microorganisms can electrochemically interact with electrodes, directly donating or accepting electrons from electrode surfaces. Here, we developed a novel cathode by using nickel nanowires anchored to graphite for the improvement of microbial-catalyzed reduction in MEC cathode chamber.

Journal of Environmental Chemical Engineering, 2022
Breeding wastewater is still challenging to be treated due to its large emissions, high contents of organic pollutants and various pathogenic microorganisms. In this study, breeding wastewater was efficiently treated by an electroactive microbial community screened from the native microorganisms of the breeding wastewater in microbial fuel cells (MFC).

Tubular Microbial Fuel Cells for Efficient Electricity Generation
Environmental Science & Technology, 2005A tubular, single-chambered, continuous microbial fuel cell (MFC) that generates high power outputs using a granular graphite matrix as the anode and a ferricyanide solution as the cathode is described. The maximal power outputs obtained were 90 and 66 W m(-3) net anodic compartment (NAC) (48 and 38 W m(-3) total anodic compartment (TAC)) for feed ...

Efficient Microbial Degradation of Bisphenol A in the Presence of Activated Carbon
Journal of Bioscience and Bioengineering, 2008The biodegradation of bisphenol A (BPA) was carried out with Sphingomonas sp. strain BP-7 and Sphingomonas yanoikuyae BP-11R in the presence of activated carbon (AC). When AC was present, both BPA-degrading bacteria efficiently degraded 300 mg/l BPA without releasing 4-hydroxyacetophenone, the major intermediate produced in BPA degradation, into the ...

Estimation of available efficiency of microbial growth on methanol and ethanol
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 1985AbstractThe balances of reductivity and high‐energy bonds (HEB) during microbial growth on glucose (a standard substrate), methanol, and ethanol are reported. Also, numerical values for the quantities of HEB formation in the respiratory metabolism, HEB consumption in the constructive metabolism, as well as in a number of the other intracellular ...
