A microbial fuel cell containing a mixed bacterial culture utilizing glucose as carbon source was enriched to investigate power output in relation to glucose dosage. Electron recovery in terms of electricity up to 89% occurred for glucose feeding rates in the range 0.5-3 g l(-1) d(-1), at powers up to 3.6 W m(-2) of electrode surface, a five fold higher power output than reported thus far. This research indicates that microbial electricity generation offers perspectives for optimization.
为了研究与葡萄糖剂量相关的功率输出,对一个含有利用葡萄糖作为碳源的混合细菌培养物的微生物燃料电池进行了富集培养。在电极表面功率高达3.6 W m(-2)的情况下,对于0.5 - 3 g l(-1) d(-1)范围内的葡萄糖进料速率,以电的形式回收的电子高达89%,这一功率输出比迄今为止报道的高出五倍。这项研究表明,微生物发电为优化提供了前景。
