Microbial fuel cells

Biochemical Society Transactions, 1983
Microbial fuel cells containingProteus vulgaris and oxidation-reduction (“redox”) mediators were investigated. The bacteria were chemically immobilized onto the surface of graphite felt electrodes, which supported production of continuous electric current and could be reused after storage A computer-controlled carbohydrate feed system enabled the cell ...

Miniaturizing microbial fuel cells

Trends in Biotechnology, 2011
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) represent an emerging technology for electricity generation from renewable biomass. Given the demand for a better understanding of the bio/inorganic interface that plays a key role in MFC energy production, small-scale MFCs are receiving considerable attention owing to their intrinsic advantages in both fundamental studies ...

Photosynthetic Microbial Fuel Cells

2016
This chapter presents the current state of research on bioelectrochemical systems that include phototrophic organisms. First, we describe what is known of how phototrophs transfer electrons from internal metabolism to external substrates. This includes efforts to understand both the source of electrons and transfer pathways within cells.

Microbial Fuel Cells Characterization

2019
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) received considerable interest in recent years and represent a promising technology based on the conversion of chemical energy into electrical energy by microbial catalysis. However, their power output and stability is low due to the influence of the cathode, electrolyte, membrane, microorganism of the anode, and cell ...
