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 ...

Novel low cost proton exchange membrane made from sulphonated biochar for application in microbial fuel cells

, 2020
A novel low cost proton exchange membrane (PEM) was synthesized, using biochar derived from food waste by pyrolysis at 600 °C followed by sulphonation and using a poly vinyl alcohol based matrix, named as SBC-600, for application in microbial fuel cell ...

Microbial fuel-cells

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

2017
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.

Microbial Fuel Cells

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 ...
