Intermittent load implementation in microbial fuel cells improves power performance (2014)
Journal Article
Greenman, J., Walter, X. A., & Ieropoulos, I. (2014). Intermittent load implementation in microbial fuel cells improves power performance. Bioresource Technology, 172, 365-372. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.biortech.2014.09.034

© 2014 Elsevier Ltd. This study reports on the response of small-scale MFCs to intermittent loading, in terms of power output over time. The aim was to understand the evolution with time of power output under different duty cycles, in conditions clos...

Water formation at the cathode and sodium recovery using Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) (2014)
Journal Article
Gajda, I., Greenman, J., Melhuish, C., Santoro, C., Li, B., Cristiani, P., & Ieropoulos, I. (2014). Water formation at the cathode and sodium recovery using Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs). Sustainable Energy Technologies and Assessments, 7, 187-194. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.seta.2014.05.001

Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) utilise biodegradable carbon compounds in organic waste to generate electric current. The aim of this work was to enhance MFC performance by using low cost and catalyst (platinum)-free cathode materials. The results showed...

Small-scale microbial fuel cells utilising uric salts (2014)
Journal Article
You, J., Greenman, J., Melhuish, C., & Ieropoulos, I. (2014). Small-scale microbial fuel cells utilising uric salts. Sustainable Energy Technologies and Assessments, 6, 60-63. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.seta.2014.01.005

With exhausting fossil fuels and increasing greenhouse gas emissions, numerous attempts, to overcome future energy challenges, are being pursued. In this study, small-scale microbial fuel cells (MFCs, 0.7mL anodic chamber volume) were built to invest... Read More about Small-scale microbial fuel cells utilising uric salts.
