Microbial Electrolysis Cells for High Yield Hydrogen Gas Production from Organic Matter

, 2008
The use of electrochemically active bacteria to break down organic matter, combined with the addition of a small voltage (>0.2 V in practice) in specially designed microbial electrolysis cells (MECs), can result in a high yield of hydrogen gas.

Optimizing the electrode size and arrangement in a microbial electrolysis cell

Bioresource Technology, 2011
This study investigates the influence of anode and cathode size and arrangement on hydrogen production in a membrane-less flat-plate microbial electrolysis cell (MEC). Protein measurements were used to evaluate microbial density in the carbon felt anode. The protein concentration was observed to significantly decrease with the increase in distance from
