Microbial fuel cells: From fundamentals to applications. A review

TL;DR: Findings indicate that even if differences in organic matter removal and coulombic efficiency are obtained, the polarization potential had no statistically significant effect on overall current density production.

TL;DR: O2-reducing biocathodes were designed by using salt marsh sediment as the inoculum and a hypersaline media of high conductivity to overcome the O2 reduction issue in hypersaline MFCs by designing efficient halotolerant microbial cathodes.

TL;DR: In this paper , a new environmental issue has emerged concerning the toxicity of such components throughout manufacturing and through use in peculiar applications, and several approaches, mainly based on new compounds, have been addressed in the literature.

TL;DR: Recent advances in applied electrochemistry focus on energy conversion and storage, processes, environment, and bioanalytical chemistry. Electrochemical synthesis and modeling are key advancements in the field.

TL;DR: A review of the different materials and methods used to construct MFCs, techniques used to analyze system performance, and recommendations on what information to include in MFC studies and the most useful ways to present results are provided.

TL;DR: This comprehensive Review focuses on the low- and non-platinum electrocatalysts including advanced platinum alloys, core-shell structures, palladium-based catalysts, metal oxides and chalcogenides, carbon-based non-noble metal catalysts and metal-free catalysts.

TL;DR: This paper presents a meta-analyses of the physical and chemical properties of Boron-Doped Diamond for Electrochemistry as well as a mechanistic analysis of the properties of the diamond itself and some of its applications.

TL;DR: Results indicate that the pili of G. sulfurreducens might serve as biological nanowires, transferring electrons from the cell surface to the surface of Fe(iii) oxides, indicating possibilities for other unique cell-surface and cell–cell interactions, and for bioengineering of novel conductive materials.
