The Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) is a bioreactor with which the chemical energy in bonds of organic compounds are converted to electricity under anaerobic conditions through catalytic reactions micro-organisms. It has been familiar for long time that can be generated directly using bacteria break matter. A microbial fuel cell also serve different wastewater treatment destroy development MFC techno...

background: today, in an attempt to reduce the human exposure to synthetic compounds such as chemical preservatives, some studies aimed at the replacement of artificial preservatives with natural ingredients with natural protective effects. methods: in the present study the microbial inhibition effect of saturejaba chtiarica essential oil in three different concentrations (0.1, 0.05, and 0.025%...

Extracellular electron transfer (EET) is a type of microbial respiration that enables electron transfer between microbial cells and extracellular solid materials, including naturally-occurring metal compounds and artificial electrodes. Microorganisms harboring EET abilities have received considerable attention for their various biotechnological applications, in addition to their contribution to...

In the past 10-15 years, the microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology has captured the attention of the scientific community for the possibility of transforming organic waste directly into electricity through microbially catalyzed anodic, and microbial/enzymatic/abiotic cathodic electrochemical reactions. In this review, several aspects of the technology are considered. Firstly, a brief history of ...
