Abstract

Key findings

  • The composite membrane showed enhanced ion conductivity and mechanical strength compared to traditional membranes.
  • The membrane's improved performance led to increased power density and reduced internal resistance in the microbial fuel cell.
  • The composite membrane also exhibited excellent stability and durability over multiple cycles of operation.
