Microbial fuel cell compared to a chemostat [PDF]
Chemosphere, 2022 Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) represent a green and sustainable energy conversion system that integrate bacterial biofilms within an electrochemical two-electrode set-up to produce electricity from organic waste. In this review, we focus on a novel exploratory model, regarding "thin" biofilms forming on highly perfusable (non-diffusible) anodes in small ...
