Optimisation of Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) through bacterial-robot interaction (2019)
Thesis
Theodosiou, P. Optimisation of Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) through bacterial-robot interaction. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/1490990

For over 100 years, Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) have been developed as eco-friendly alternatives for generating electricity via the oxidation of organic matter by bacteria. In the early 2000s, collectives of MFCs were proven fea-sible energy provider... Read More about Optimisation of Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) through bacterial-robot interaction.

Small scale/large scale MFC stacks for improved power generation and implementation in robotic applications (2016)
Thesis
Papacharalampos, G. Small scale/large scale MFC stacks for improved power generation and implementation in robotic applications. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/906968

Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) are biological electrical generators or batteries that have shown to be able to energise electronic devices solely from the breakdown of organic matter found in wastewater. The generated power from a single unit is current... Read More about Small scale/large scale MFC stacks for improved power generation and implementation in robotic applications.

Waste and wastewater clean-up using microbial fuel cells (2016)
Thesis
You, J. Waste and wastewater clean-up using microbial fuel cells. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/907941

A sustainable energy portfolio should include a range of carbon-neutral and renewable energy technologies. Amongst the renewable energy technologies, MFCs can offer a solution for both sustainable energy and clean water demands. In order to take the...

Self sustainable cathodes for microbial fuel cells (2016)
Thesis
Gajda, I. Self sustainable cathodes for microbial fuel cells. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/908025

The ultimate goal of this thesis was to investigate and produce an MFC with self-sustainable cathode so it could be implemented in real world applications. Using methods previously employed [polarisation curve experiments, power output measurements,... Read More about Self sustainable cathodes for microbial fuel cells.
