چکیده

Three-dimensional graphene foam (GF) is synthesized by CVD. When water flows through GF, electricity is induced. The direction of the induced current is dominated by the flow direction of water; the value of induced current is related to the flow velocity but has no relationship with the flow direction and external bias voltage.

Integrated Microfluidic Flow-Through Microbial Fuel Cells

This paper reports on a miniaturized microbial fuel cell with a microfluidic flow-through configuration: a porous anolyte chamber is formed by filling a microfluidic chamber with three-dimensional graphene foam as anode, allowing nutritional medium to flow through the chamber to intimately interact with the colonized microbes on the scaffolds of the anode. No nutritional media flow over the ano...

High power density microbial fuel cell with flexible 3D graphene-nickel foam as anode.

The structure and electrical conductivity of anode play a significant role in the power generation of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). In this study, we developed a three-dimensional (3D) reduced graphene oxide-nickel (denoted as rGO-Ni) foam as an anode for MFC through controlled deposition of rGO sheets onto the nickel foam substrate. The loading amount of rGO sheets and electrode surface area ca...

High Sensitivity Gas Detection Using a Macroscopic Three-Dimensional Graphene Foam Network

Nanostructures are known to be exquisitely sensitive to the chemical environment and offer ultra-high sensitivity for gas-sensing. However, the fabrication and operation of devices that use individual nanostructures for sensing is complex, expensive and suffers from poor reliability due to contamination and large variability from sample-to-sample. By contrast, conventional solid-state and condu...

A Novel Role of Three Dimensional Graphene Foam to Prevent Heater Failure during Boiling

We report a novel boiling heat transfer (NBHT) in reduced graphene oxide (RGO) suspended in water (RGO colloid) near critical heat flux (CHF), which is traditionally the dangerous limitation of nucleate boiling heat transfer because of heater failure. When the heat flux reaches the maximum value (CHF) in RGO colloid pool boiling, the wall temperature increases gradually and slowly with an almos...
