  • Title: Continuous electricity production from artificial wastewater using a mediator-less microbial fuel cell.
    Author: Moon H, Chang IS, Kim BH.
    Journal: Bioresour Technol; 2006 Mar; 97(4):621-7. PubMed ID: 15939588.
    Abstract:
    A microbial fuel cell (MFC) was optimized in terms of MFC design factors and operational parameters for continuous electricity production using artificial wastewater (AW). The performance of MFC was analyzed through the polarization curve method under different conditions using a mediator-less MFC. The highest power density of 0.56 W/m2 was achieved with AW of 300 mg/l fed at the rate of 0.53 ml/min at 35 degrees C. The power per unit cell working volume was 102 mW/l, which was over 60 times higher than those reported in the previous mediator-less MFCs which did not use a cathode or an anode mediator. The power could be stably generated over 2 years.
