Energy recovery from tubular microbial electrolysis cell with stainless steel mesh as cathode
In comparison to the transportation and storage of hydrogen, methane has advantages in the practical application, while the emerging product termed as 'biohythane' could be an alternative to pure hydrogen or methane in a new form of energy recovery from microbial electrolysis cell (MEC). However, the cathodic catalyst even for biohythane still bothers the performance and cost of total MEC. Here...
متن کاملThe significance of key operational variables to the enhancement of hydrogen production in a single-chamber microbial electrolysis cell (MEC)
Microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) is one of the promising and cutting-edge technologies for generating hydrogen from wastewater through biodegradation of organic waste by exoelectrogenic microbes. In the MECs, the operational parameters, such as applied voltage (Eap), anode surface area, anode-cathode distance, and N2/CO2 volume ratio have a significant impact on the hydrogen yield and producti...

متن کاملHigh hydrogen production rate of microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) with reduced electrode spacing.
Practical applications of microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) require high hydrogen production rates and a compact reactor. These goals can be achieved by reducing electrode spacing but high surface area anodes are needed. The brush anode MEC with electrode spacing of 2 cm had a higher hydrogen production rate and energy efficiency than an MEC with a flat cathode and a 1-cm electrode spacing. T...
متن کاملThe use and optimization of stainless steel mesh cathodes in microbial electrolysis cells
Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) provide a high-yield method for producing hydrogen from renewable biomass. One challenge for commercialization of the technology is a lowcost and highly efficient cathode. Stainless steel (SS) is very inexpensive, and cathodes made of this material with high specific surface areas can achieve performance similar to carbon cathodes containing a platinum cataly...
