A Microbial Fuel Cell is a bioelectrochemical device that exploits metabolic activities of living microorganisms for generation of electric current. The usefulness and unique and exclusive architecture of this device has received wide attention recently of engineers and researchers of various disciplines such as microbiologists, chemical engineers, biotechnologists, environment engineers and mechanical engineers, and the subject of MFCs has thereby progressed as a well-developed technology. Sustained innovations and continuous development efforts have established the usefulness of MFCs towards many specialized and value-added applications beyond electricity generation, such as wastewater treatment and implantable body devices. This review is an attempt to provide an update on this rapidly growing technology.
微生物燃料电池是一种生物电化学装置，它利用活微生物的代谢活动来产生电流。这种装置的实用性以及独特且独有的架构最近受到了微生物学家、化学工程师、生物技术专家、环境工程师和机械工程师等各学科的工程师和研究人员的广泛关注，因此微生物燃料电池这一主题已发展成为一项成熟的技术。持续的创新和不断的开发努力已确立了微生物燃料电池在发电以外的许多专门和增值应用方面的实用性，例如废水处理和植入式人体装置。本综述旨在对这一快速发展的技术提供最新信息。
