Anode materials for sediment microbial fuel cells.
INTRODUCTION Plant microbial fuel cells (P-MFCs), and more general sediment microbial fuel cells, make use of electricigenic metabolism of microorganisms in anoxic soils and sediments. Electricigenic microorganisms are able to respire organic carbon from the soil or sediment with an electrode as final electron acceptor [1]. In this work, the focus is on the anode buried in the sediment, the ele...
متن کاملGeneration of electricity and analysis of microbial communities in wheat straw biomass-powered microbial fuel cells.
Electricity generation from wheat straw hydrolysate and the microbial ecology of electricity-producing microbial communities developed in two-chamber microbial fuel cells (MFCs) were investigated. The power density reached 123 mW/m(2) with an initial hydrolysate concentration of 1,000 mg chemical oxygen demand (COD)/liter, while coulombic efficiencies ranged from 37.1 to 15.5%, corresponding to...
متن کاملComparative Metagenomic Analysis of Electrogenic Microbial Communities in Differentially Inoculated Swine Wastewater-Fed Microbial Fuel Cells
Bioelectrochemical systems such as microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are promising new technologies for efficient removal of organic compounds from industrial wastewaters, including that generated from swine farming. We inoculated two pairs of laboratory-scale MFCs with sludge granules from a beer wastewater-treating anaerobic digester (IGBS) or from sludge taken from the bottom of a tank receiving s...
متن کاملElectrokinetic and Sediment Remediation in Microbial Fuel Cell (RESEARCH NOTE)
Recently developed man-made structures have caused environmental pollutions, and unfortunately, in spite of the deteriorating affairs and repeated warnings by scientists and experts, the degree of contamination is increasing considerably. One of the natural sources undergoing changes is the coasts. It is mainly due to human activities which have led to a change in the quality and quantity of se...
متن کاملPerformance of freshwater sediment microbial fuel cells: Consistency
This study experimentally examined the performance consistency of sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) with the same geometry and the same startup protocol. The cells revealed very different characteristics after startup. Doubling the anodic surface area did not enhance the cell performance. Stirring the sediment and aerating the upper water increased voltage output, and the chemical environme...
