Lixiaojia Wangmancang Microbial Fuel Cell---MFC （微生物燃料电池） Contents Definition of MFC MFC are bioelectrical devices that harness the natural metabolisms(新陈代谢) of microbes to produce electrical power directly from organic material. Contents ◆Background of MFC ◆Development course of MFC After 2002 ◆classified of MFC Wastewater-based MFC Soil-based MFC Soil-based MFC the chemical reaction anode：oxidation process（氧化过程） (CH2O)n＋nH2O nCO2＋4ne-＋4nH+ the chemical reaction cathode：reductive process（还原过程） 4e-＋O2＋4H+ 2H2O Contents General principles of Wastewater-based MFC General principles of Soil-based MFC Anode: Cathode cathode, as an electron acceptor, oxygen is reduced to water here. To obtain a sufficient oxygen reduction reaction (氧还原) rate a Platina-catalyst（铂催化剂） has to be used. PEM—proton exchange membrane（质子交换膜） ◆separates the anode from the cathode ◆plays the role of an electric insulator（绝缘体）and allows protons to move through The fuel in the anode compartment ◆Wastewater: carbohydrates volatile fatty acids (挥发性脂肪酸) alcohols (醇类) sulfides(硫化物) amino acids, proteins … The bacteria----key player The bacteria----key player The bacteria----key player The bacteria----key player The bacteria----key player The bacteria----key player The ways of electron transfer mechanisms: The ways of electron transfer mechanisms: The ways of electron transfer mechanisms: The ways of electron transfer mechanisms: The ways of electron transfer mechanisms: Contents Advantages of MFC Problems of MFC----low power outputs MFCs output voltage is basically stable at about 325 mV Contents Application of MFC 3. Nanowires（纳米线） Transferring the electron through conductive （导电的）appendages（附加物）, termed “nanowires”, grown by the bacteria. Application of MFC Definit
