Biofuel cells (BFCs) that utilize enzymes as catalysts represent a new sustainable and renewable energy technology. Numerous efforts have been directed to improve the performance of the enzymatic BFCs (EBFCs) with respect to power output and operational stability for further applications in portable power sources, self-powered electrochemical sensing, implantable medical devices, etc. The latest advances in EBFCs based on porous nanoarchitectures over the past 5 years are detailed here. Porous matrices from carbon, noble metals, and polymers promote the development of EBFCs through the electron transfer and mass transport benefits. Some key issues regarding how these nanostructured porous media improve the performance of EBFCs are also discussed.
生物燃料电池（BFC）利用酶作为催化剂，代表了一种新的可持续和可再生能源技术。为了进一步应用于便携式电源、自供电电化学传感、植入式医疗设备等领域，人们已经做出了许多努力来提高酶生物燃料电池（EBFC）的性能，包括提高输出功率和运行稳定性。本文详细介绍了过去 5 年来基于多孔纳米结构的 EBFC 的最新进展。碳、贵金属和聚合物等多孔基质通过促进电子转移和质量传输，促进了 EBFC 的发展。本文还讨论了这些纳米结构多孔介质如何提高 EBFC 性能的一些关键问题。
