TL;DR: The various substrates that have been explored in MFCs so far, their resulting performance, limitations as well as future potential substrates are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial fuel cells: From fundamentals to applications. A review
TL;DR: The development of the concept of microbial fuel cell into a wider range of derivative technologies, called bioelectrochemical systems, is described, introducing briefly microbial electrolysis cells, microbial desalination cells and microbial electrosynthesis cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of the production and applications of waste-derived volatile fatty acids
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed the various wastes amenable to VFA production, the pertinent factors influencing the VFO production, and the various applications of the resulting VFA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cathodes as electron donors for microbial metabolism: Which extracellular electron transfer mechanisms are involved?
TL;DR: This review illuminates extracellular electron transfer mechanisms that may be involved in microbial bioelectrochemical systems with biocathodes and predicts that in direct electron transfer reactions, c-type cytochromes often together with hydrogenases play a critical role and that, in mediated electronTransfer reactions, natural redox mediators, such as PQQ, will be involvement in the bioElectrochemical reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
