Abstract
Key findings
- Non-Pt cathode catalysts exhibit comparable or even superior performance to Pt-based catalysts in MFCs.
- The use of non-Pt catalysts reduces costs and increases sustainability of MFCs.
- Further optimization of non-Pt catalysts is needed to achieve maximum performance and efficiency.
