Miniaturizing microbial fuel cells
Trends in Biotechnology, 2011Microbial 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
2016This 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
2019Microbial 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 ...

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 1993
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 ...

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are bioelectrochemical devices that produces electric power while treating wastewaters. These unique systems relies on the ability of certain electroactive bacteria to transfer their electrons extracellulary as a part of their metabolism when placed in proximity to a solid electrode.

Environmental Science & Technology, 2006
Cellular life exists at the interface between electrochemical extremes. The energy of most living cells depends on the transfer of electrons from intracellular, electrically reduced biochemicals to oxidized extracellular acceptors. For almost one hundred years investigators have tried to tap into these processes in microbes for electrical power ...

Scaling up Microbial Fuel Cells
Environmental Science & Technology, 2008The goal of this study was to quantify the relation between the surface area of the current-limiting electrode of a microbial fuel cell (MFC) and the power density generated by the MFC. Shewanella oneidensis (MR-1) was grown anaerobically in the anodic compartment of an MFC utilizing lactate as the electron donor.

Supercapacitive microbial fuel cells
2023The integration of supercapacitive features in microbial fuel cells (MFC) can solve one of the major limitations of this technology, i.e., the low power output. In this chapter, three different strategies to exploit the supercapacitive features of MFCs are reported and discussed: (i) the integration of high specific surface area elements in the ...

Photo‐switchable microbial fuel‐cells
Biotechnology and Bioengineering, 2018AbstractRegulation of Bio‐systems in a clean, simple, and efficient way is important for the design of smart bio‐interfaces and bioelectronic devices. Light as a non‐invasive mean to control the activity of a protein enables spatial and temporal control far superior to other chemical and physical methods.
