A microbial fluidized electrode electrolysis cell (MFEEC) for enhanced hydrogen production
A microbial fluidized electrode electrolysis cell (MFEEC) was used to enhance hydrogen gas production from dissolved organic matter. Flowable granular activated carbon (GAC) particles were used to provide additional surface area for growth of exoelectrogenic bacteria. The use of this exoelectrogenic biofilm on the GAC particles with fluidization produced higher current densities and hydrogen ga...
متن کاملAuthor's personal copy Enhanced hydrogen generation using a saline catholyte in a two chamber microbial electrolysis cell
High rates of hydrogen gas production were achieved in a two chamber microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) without a catholyte phosphate buffer by using a saline catholyte solution and a cathode constructed around a stainless steel mesh current collector. Using the non-buffered salt solution (68 mM NaCl) produced the highest current density of 131 12 A/m, hydrogen yield of 3.2 0.3 mol H2/mol acetat...
متن کاملHydrogen gas production in a microbial electrolysis cell by electrohydrogenesis
Electrohydrogenesis is a bio-electrochemical process where organic material is microbially oxidized to protons and electrons, which in turn are reduced to form hydrogen gas (H2). The reactor in which these reactions occur is termed a microbial electrolysis cell (MEC). The microorganisms that colonize the anode are known as electricigens and behave as biological catalysts, significantly reducing...
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 کاملAnode microbial communities produced by changing from microbial fuel cell to microbial electrolysis cell operation using two different wastewaters.
Conditions in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) differ from those in microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) due to the intrusion of oxygen through the cathode and the release of H(2) gas into solution. Based on 16S rRNA gene clone libraries, anode communities in reactors fed acetic acid decreased in species richness and diversity, and increased in numbers of Geobacter sulfurreducens, when reactors were ...
