Electrokinetic 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 کاملAssessment of Sediment Remediation Potential using Microbial Fuel Cell Technology
Bio-electrical responses obtained from freshwater sediments by employing microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology were investigated in this experimental study. During the electricity generation, organic matter in the sediment was microbially oxidized under anaerobic conditions with an electrode serving as a terminal electron acceptor. It was found that the sediment organic matter (SOM) associated w...
متن کاملRemoval and Changes of Sediment Organic Matter and Electricity Generation by Sediment Microbial Fuel Cells and Amorphous Ferric Hydroxide
Sediments play an important role in determining the quality of lakes, rivers and oceans as they can act as either a source or sink for pollutants. Once the input pollution is controlled, sediments as a secondary source of pollution can release the accumulated pollutants to overlying water.1 The organic matter content of sediments can also affect the structure of macroinvertebrate assemblages.2 ...
متن کاملEffect of Electrolyte Conductivity and Aeration on Performance of Sediment Microbial Fuel Cell
Sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) are a promising technology for a viable source of energy. This technology is faced with many challenges, such as limited mass transfer and low electricity generation. The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of electrolyte conductivity and aeration effect on power generation from SMFCs. Electrical conductivity was adjusted at 6different levels...
متن کاملProduction of electricity from proteins using a microbial fuel cell.
Electricity generation was examined from proteins and a protein-rich wastewater using a single chamber microbial fuel cell (MFC). The maximum power densities achieved were 354 +/- 10 mW/m2 using bovine serum albumin (BSA) and 269 +/- 14 mW/m2 using peptone (1100 mg/L BSA and 300 mg/L peptone). The recovery of organic matter as electricity, defined as the Coulombic efficiency (CE), was comparabl...
