Fuel Cells to use Bacteria as Catalyst for Electricity Generation
Summary
The increasing demand for energy has created substantial need for environmentally clean alternative energy sources. Renewable bioenergy is viewed as one of the cost effective and efficient ways to mitigate the negative effects of global warming. The Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) has shown feasible ways of utilizing organic waste or biowaste for electricity generation. Microbial Fuel Cell is a biological fuel cell that converts the chemical energy present in organic compounds to electrical energy through electrochemical reaction of micro organisms at the anode chamber under anaerobic conditions. MFCs have the potential to be much more versatile, which makes them unique in comparison to other types of fuel cells. For example, conventional fuel cells have the ability to function on only one type of fuel, hydrogen, whereas MFC has the ability to use a wide variety of fuel sources. The innovative design of MFC with alternative materials for electrode and catalysts has made MFC a promising technology.
