    Abstract:
    Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) can generate energy while processing organic pollutants, which has a great impact on environmental wastewater treatment applications. In this study, a gel polymer was formed by Co-Fe-N co-doping biochar (Co-Fe-N@BC), which was used as the anode material to improve the electricity generation performance of MFC. The Co-Fe-N@BC material prepared at 900℃ carbonised biomass into more graphitic carbon, and its total resistance (3.56 Ω) was significantly reduced. In the corresponding dual-chamber MFC, the current density was 2.81 A/m2, and the power density reached 1181 mW/m2 at maximum. Among the materials tested, the Co-Fe-N@BC anode MFC had the highest chemical oxygen demand removal rate and coulombic efficiency, reaching 91% and 13%, respectively. It is proved that MFC with Co-Fe-N@BC anode has the best electrochemical performance.
