Journal ArticleDOI
Biochar as a sustainable electrode material for electricity production in microbial fuel cells.
TL;DR: Wood-based biochars were used as microbial fuel cell electrodes to significantly reduce cost and carbon footprint and reduced the energy andcarbon footprint associated with electrode manufacturing and the disposal of which could have additional agronomic benefits.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial Metabolism and Community Structure in Response to Bioelectrochemically Enhanced Remediation of Petroleum Hydrocarbon-Contaminated Soil
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that electrodes in a bioelectrochemical system (BES) can potentially serve as a nonexhaustible electron acceptor for in situ bioremediation of hydrocarbon contaminated soil and suggests that a unique constitution of microbial communities may play a key role in BES enhancement of petroleum hydrocarbon biodegradation in soils.
Journal ArticleDOI
Granular biochar compared with activated carbon for wastewater treatment and resource recovery
TL;DR: Granular wood-derived biochar (BC) was compared to granular activated carbon (GAC) for the treatment and nutrient recovery of real wastewater in both batch and column studies as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Graphitic biochar as a cathode electrocatalyst support for microbial fuel cells
Tyler Huggins,Tyler Huggins,Jeremy J. Pietron,Heming Wang,Zhiyong Jason Ren,Justin C. Biffinger +5 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that graphitic biochar can serve as an effective, low cost, and scalable material for MFC application.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy and Performance Comparison of Microbial Fuel Cell and Conventional Aeration Treating of Wastewater
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the wastewater treatment efficiency and energy consumption and generation among three reactor systems-a traditional aeration process, a simple submerged MFC configuration, and a control reactor acting similar as natural lagoons.
