Abstract

Key findings

  • Voltage reversal in MFC stack can be attributed to uneven bacterial growth and substrate supply.
  • Simulation results show that optimized substrate supply can reduce voltage reversal by 30%.
  • Bacterial growth rate and substrate supply rate have a significant impact on MFC performance.
