EvoBot: Towards a robot-chemostat for culturing and maintaining Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this paper we present EvoBot, a RepRap open-source 3D-printer modified to operate like a robot for culturing and maintaining Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs). EvoBot is a modular liquid handling robot that has been adapted to host MFCs in its experimen...

Towards a self-powered biosensors for environmental applications in remote, off-grid areas (2017)
Journal Article

One important factor for developing biosensors is taking the source of electrical energy into account. The source of electricity is needed whenever we consider point-of-care diagnostics, in-vivo tests or in particular – environmental applications. Th...

Electricity production from human urine in ceramic microbial fuel cells with alternative non-fluorinated polymer binders for cathode construction (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is one of the most common binders employed to prepare cathode electrodes in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and yet this fluorinated polymer is neither sustainable nor environmentally friendly. In this... Read More about Electricity production from human urine in ceramic microbial fuel cells with alternative non-fluorinated polymer binders for cathode construction.

Gelatin as a promising printable feedstock for microbial fuel cells (MFC) (2017)
Journal Article

© 2016 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC The microbial fuel cell (MFC) is an energy transducer that can directly produce electricity from bacterial oxidation of organic matter. MFCs consist of two reaction chambers (anode and cathode) separated by a s... Read More about Gelatin as a promising printable feedstock for microbial fuel cells (MFC).

Self-powered, autonomous Biological Oxygen Demand biosensor for online water quality monitoring (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 The Authors Standard Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) analysis requires 5days to complete. To date, microbial fuel cell biosensors used as an alternative method for BOD assessment requires external apparatus, which limits their use for on-line m...
