Impact of disinfectant on the electrical outputs of urine-fed ceramic and membrane-less microbial fuel cell cascades (2024)
Journal Article
You, J., Walter, X. A., Gajda, I., Greenman, J., & Ieropoulos, I. (2024). Impact of disinfectant on the electrical outputs of urine-fed ceramic and membrane-less microbial fuel cell cascades. International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 57, 759-763. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2024.01.042

The application of microbial fuel cells in sanitation has demonstrated feasibility in supplying electricity and providing safety in underserved communities, especially at toilet blocks. Two different designs of urine fed MFC cascades, ceramic MFCs (c...
