Abstract

Key findings

  • Electrodeposition of nickel particles on a gas diffusion cathode significantly enhances hydrogen production in a microbial electrolysis cell.
  • The nickel particles improve the electrocatalytic activity of the cathode, leading to increased hydrogen evolution reaction rates.
  • The stability of the microbial electrolysis cell is also improved with the incorporation of nickel particles, allowing for longer-term operation.
