Percarbonate as a naturally buffering catholyte for microbial fuel cells.
Sustainable cathode development has been a challenge for the emerging microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology. This study presents a simple catholyte called sodium percarbonate to serve as a new type of electron acceptor for MFCs. Lab scale comparisons showed sodium percarbonate cathode obtained comparable power density (9.6W/m(3)) with traditional air-cathode and potassium ferricyanide, but perca...

متن کاملModeling of Multi-population Microbial Fuel and Electrolysis Cells Based on the Bioanode Potential Conditions
Microbial fuel cell and microbial electrolysis cell are two major types of microbial electrochemical cells. In the present study, we governed modeling of these systems by concentrating on the simulation of bioelectrochemical reactions in both biofilm and anolyte and considering the effect of pH on the microbial growth. The simulation of microbial fuel and electrolysis cells can be described by ...
متن کاملComparison of Conduction Based and Mediator Based Models for Microbial Fuel Cells
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are processes used for simultanuous bioenergy capturing and waste treatment. In this study, a model for MFCs based upon a conduction mechanism for electron transfer is proposed, which integrates substrate utilization, current production and conduction and microbial distribution and growth in batch flow mode. The outputs of the model and that of a mediator based mode...
