Algal "lagoon" effect for oxygenating MFC cathodes (2013)
Conference Proceeding
Gajda, I., Greenman, J., Melhuish, C., & Ieropoulos, I. (2013). Algal "lagoon" effect for oxygenating MFC cathodes. In V. Cigolotti, C. Barchiesi, & M. Chianella (Eds.), Proceedings of the 5th European Fuel Cell Piero Lunghi Conference. , (193-194)

Copyright © 2013 Delta Energy and Environment. This paper describes the active oxygenation performed by the photosynthetic organisms in the cathode of a two-chamber Microbial Fuel Cell system. The algal growth provided dissolved oxygen to the cathode... Read More about Algal "lagoon" effect for oxygenating MFC cathodes.

Photosynthetic cathodes for microbial fuel cells (2013)
Journal Article
Gajda, I., Greenman, J., Melhuish, C., & Ieropoulos, I. (2013). Photosynthetic cathodes for microbial fuel cells. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 38(26), 11559-11564. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2013.02.111

One of the major limiting factors in the practical implementation of Microbial Fuel Cells is finding efficient and sustainable catalysts for the cathode half reaction, in an attempt to avoid expensive and/or toxic catalysts. The use of phototrophic o... Read More about Photosynthetic cathodes for microbial fuel cells.
