Microbial fuel cell, method of controlling and measuring the redox potential difference of the fuel cell

Greenman, John; Ieropoulos, Yannis

Abstract

A microbial fuel cell (MFC) in which the anode and/or cathode half-cell comprises at least one additional electrode insulated from direct contact with the working electrode and arranged to be coupled to an external voltage or current source, wherein the additional electrode does not comprise an internal redox system, methods of operation of MFCs and methods for measuring, controlling or modulating MFC circuits are described.
