Abstract
A microbial fuel cell produce electric energy and clean up effluents thanks to bio-electrochemical reactions in which electro-active bacteria are used as catalysts, it is considered as a sustainable technique. This paper focuses on the effect of different times of open circuit potential on the current density produced by compost leachate. The obtained results demonstrate that an electro-active biofilm was developed using compost leachate, with a potential (-0.2V/ESC. Maximum current density (458.3 µA/cm²) was reached after only 3h of polarization after an open circuit duration of 28 days. Scanning electron microscopy has been used to characterize the biofilm formed on carbon graphite electrodes at different phases.
期刊介绍：
The International Journal of Renewable Energy Research (IJRER) is not a for profit organisation. IJRER is a quarterly published, open source journal and operates an online submission with the peer review system allowing authors to submit articles online and track their progress via its web interface. IJRER seeks to promote and disseminate knowledge of the various topics and technologies of renewable (green) energy resources. The journal aims to present to the international community important results of work in the fields of renewable energy research, development, application or design. The journal also aims to help researchers, scientists, manufacturers, institutions, world agencies, societies, etc. to keep up with new developments in theory and applications and to provide alternative energy solutions to current issues such as the greenhouse effect, sustainable and clean energy issues.
