Abstract
Key findings
- The dual gas diffusion cathode design improved MFC performance by increasing oxygen supply and reducing cathode resistance.
- The MFC stack was able to treat dark fermentation effluent with high efficiency, removing up to 90% of the substrate.
- The continuous mode operation of the MFC stack showed stable performance over a period of 30 days, with minimal decrease in power density.
