Microbial fuel cells: From fundamentals to applications. A review

TL;DR: The anode and cathode electrodes of a microbial fuel cell stack, composed of 28 single MFCs, were used as the negative and positive electrodes, respectively of an internal self-charged supercapacitor, creating an internal electrochemical double layer capacitor.

TL;DR: This methodology provides a means by which bacterial redox systems can be exploited to generate 'unnatural' polymers in the presence of 'host' cells, thus setting up the possibility of making natural-synthetic hybrid structures and conjugates.

TL;DR: In this article, the behavior of the MDC upon applying different salt concentrations in the desalination chamber was studied, and salt, sulphate and organic matter removal in acetate and sulphate-fed MDCs were investigated.

TL;DR: Using different types of nanoparticles, especially the metallic ones, to produce various kinds of bio-fuels such as biodiesel, biohydrogen, biogas, and bioethanol can improve production performance and efficiency as discussed by the authors .

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.
