Condensate originating from household food waste as a substrate for Microbial Fuel Cells

Kamperidis T., Pandis P., Vlachaki E., (Corresponding) Tremouli A., Lyberatos G.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
A microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a bioreactor that converts the chemical energy of the bonds of organic compounds to electrical energy, through the catalytic reactions of microorganisms. Under anaerobic conditions various substrates have been examined using MFC technology. This study examines the...Read more

Hydrogen production in a microbial electrolysis cell: the influence of operational parameters

(Corresponding) ANTONOPOULOU G., APOSTOLOPOULOS I., BAMPOS G., BEBELIS S., LYBERATOS G.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
In the present study two identical two-chamber microbial electrolysis cells (MECs), fed with an acetate synthetic medium, were used for hydrogen production, using different anodic materials, i.e. commercial carbon fiber paper (CP) and graphite granules (GG). The effects of the applied voltage (i.e...Read more

The effect of catalysts MnO2, activated carbon and fly ash on the performance of single-chamber Microbial Fuel Cells

(Corresponding) Tremouli A., Kamperidis T., Pandis P., Stathopoulos V., Ieropoulos I., Argirusis C., Lyberatos G.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Microbial fuel cells (MFC) are bioelectrochemical systems that convert the chemical energy contained in waste to electricity, using bacteria as catalysts. In order to boost the power output of MFCs, various approaches are feasible. This study examines the effect of using MnO2, activated carbon and...Read more
