Cathodic and anodic biofilms in Single Chamber Microbial Fuel Cells

TLDR
Quasi-stationary polarization curves performed with a three-electrode configuration on cathodic and anodic electrodes showed that the anodic overpotential, more than the cathodic one, may limit the current density in the SCMFCs for a long-term operation.

Electricity generation by a plant microbial fuel cell with an integrated oxygen reducing biocathode

TL;DR: This study shows that a chemical ferricyanide cathode can be replaced by a biological oxygen reducing cathode in a plant microbial fuel cell (PMFC) with a new record power output and finds that substrate availability in the anode likely limits the current generation.
