Application of Low-Cost Plant-Derived Carbon Dots as a Sustainable Anode Catalyst in Microbial Fuel Cells for Improved Wastewater Treatment and Power Output

Application of Low-Cost Plant-Derived Carbon Dots as a Sustainable Anode Catalyst in Microbial Fuel Cells for Improved Wastewater Treatment and Power Output

Microbial fuel cells (MFC) can generate electric energy from wastewater which can be enhanced further by anode catalysts. The recovery of electrons produced by oxidation of organics catalyzed by bacteria in the anode was enhanced when carbon dots(CDs) were added into the MFC. In this present study,...
