Microbial community modulates electrochemical performance and denitrification rate in a biocathodic autotrophic and heterotrophic denitrifying microbial fuel cell
TL;DR: The abundance of the denitrifying genes namely narG, nirS, and nosZ were assessed with the help of quantitative PCR and presence of all the genes in both the conditions ensured the necessary molecular requirements for complete denitrification.

Biofuel Cells Select for Microbial Consortia That Self-Mediate Electron Transfer
TL;DR: Enrichment by repeated transfer of a bacterial consortium harvested from the anode compartment of a biofuel cell in which glucose was used increased the output and selected organisms capable of mediating the electron transfer either by direct bacterial transfer or by excretion of redox components.

Power generation in fed-batch microbial fuel cells as a function of ionic strength, temperature, and reactor configuration
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that power densities can be increased to over 1 W/m2 by changing the operating conditions or electrode spacing, which should lead to further improvements in power generation and energy recovery in single-chamber, air-cathode MFCs.
