Abstract

Key findings

  • The MFC showed high sulfate removal efficiency (up to 95%) and organic matter removal (up to 90%)
  • The microbial community in the MFC was dominated by sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB) and other microorganisms
  • The MFC's performance was stable over a period of 120 days of continuous operation
