Journal ArticleDOI
Interfacial electron transfer and bioelectrocatalysis of carbonized plant material as effective anode of microbial fuel cell
Rengasamy Karthikeyan,Bin Wang,Jin Xuan,Jonathan W C Wong,Patrick K. H. Lee,Michael K.H. Leung +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, three kinds of plant materials, i.e., king mushroom, wild mushroom and corn stem, were investigated for fabrication of conductive electrode materials by simple carbonization procedures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hollow Carbon Fibers Derived from Natural Cotton as Effective Sorbents for Oil Spill Cleanup
TL;DR: In this paper, carbonized cotton fibers with a hollow tubular structure were successfully prepared by treating natural cotton in a N2 atmosphere and used as high capacity oil sorbents, and the material properties of the as-prepared CCFs were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, contact-angle measurements, and N2 adsorption-desorption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial electron uptake in microbial electrosynthesis: a mini-review.
TL;DR: Compared to indirect EU, direct EU is less well-studied perhaps due to the more recent discovery of this microbial capability, but remains a major challenge.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioelectrohydrogenesis and inhibition of methanogenic activity in microbial electrolysis cells - A review.
Rengasamy Karthikeyan,Rengasamy Karthikeyan,Ka Yu Cheng,Ka Yu Cheng,Ammaiyappan Selvam,Ammaiyappan Selvam,Arpita Bose,Jonathan W C Wong +7 more
TL;DR: Various aspects including reactor configurations, microorganisms, substrates, electrode materials, and inhibitors of methanogenesis in order to improve hydrogen generation in MECs are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of ionic conductivity in bioelectricity production from saline domestic sewage sludge in microbial fuel cells.
TL;DR: Dilution with FWS could enhance energy recovery from SWS because of the lower ohmic internal resistance and optimal conductivity, and the peak power density was 20-fold higher than FWS.
