Microbial community optimization for electricity generation in Microbial Fuel Cells
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are a type of fuel cells that use bacteria as biocatalyst to oxidize an organic substrate to release electrons, which can be harvested in an external circuit to produce electric energy. This technology hold the potential to help overcome energetic problems and at the same time treat waste water more efficiently than the current employed techniques. Despite all this p...
متن کاملNon-Precious Metal Catalysts for Oxygen Reduction in PEM Fuel Cells
Metal-free carbon-based catalysts for oxygen reduction is synthesized with high activity selectivity and durability. The catalysts were synthesized by introducing oxygen and nitrogen groups from various oxygen and nitrogen precursors. The nature of nitrogen surface groups and the effect of pyrolysis temperature on the activity of the catalyst have been evaluated. XPS indicates that higher conce...
متن کاملElectricity generation from rice bran in microbial fuel cells
BACKGROUND Rice bran is a by-product of the rice milling process and mostly discarded in Japan. Although many studies have shown that microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are able to generate electricity from organic wastes, limited studies have examined MFCs for generating electricity from rice bran. FINDINGS Laboratory-scale single-chamber MFCs were inoculated with paddy field soil and supplied with...
متن کاملGeneration of Bio-electricity by Microbial Fuel Cells
Renewable energy is an increasing need in our society. Microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology represents a new technology for the regeneration of electricity from what would otherwise be considered waste and can be a vital candidate for energy in this respect. Electricity directly generated by using bacteria while accomplishing wastewater treatment in MFC processes. The present study deals with p...
