摘要
The microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a device for wastewater treatment with simultaneous power generation. As batch-mode MFCs are common, the present research work reports on two trials of continuous mode operation of MFCs using domestic wastewater as substrate and sludge as bacterial source. Trial-2 was carried out with low substrate flow rate. The maximum chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction during substrate treatment in trial-1 and 2 was determined. Though the average power output was high in trial-1, it had a drastically changing trend. Trial-2 provided better water treatment and non-fluctuating power output. Thus, it is favorable considering sustainable electricity generation.
