Energy Production from Various Bio-wastes Under Different Electrode and Temperature Conditions: Experimental Study

This paper presents an analysis of the effects of various types of electrodes on the performance of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) under various test conditions. Electrical parameters are obtained from MFCs with different types of electrodes, e.g., carbon (C), aluminum (Al), zinc (Zn), and copper (Cu). The extensive performance is compared with different temperature levels during the study. Great and sufficient results are obtained and analyzed with electro-microorganisms’ electrical properties and the bio-fuel cell performance, i.e., voltage and current characteristics with respect to time under variable temperature conditions. The voltage and current have been obtained with different types of electrodes, sewage wastes, and temperature values of sludge (sewage and rice water).
