Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) can generate electrical energy from the oxidation of the organic
matter, but they must be demonstrated at large scales, treat real wastewaters, and show the …

Power generation from the renewable biomass sources using microbial fuel cell (MFC) has
attracted significant attention in recent years, while chemical energy stored in microalgae …

Nutrient removal and recovery has received less attention during the development of
bioelectrochemical systems (BES) for energy efficient wastewater treatment, but it is a critical …

Nitrogen recovery through NH3 stripping is energy intensive and requires large amounts of
chemicals. Therefore, a microbial fuel cell was developed to simultaneously produce energy …

Nitrogen and phosphorous are key pollutants in wastewater to be removed and recovered
for sustainable development. Traditionally, nitrogen removal is practiced through energy …

Domestic wastewater treatment was examined under two different temperature (23±3° C
