Abstract

Key findings

  • The MFC showed a maximum power density of 1.2 W/m², a 30% increase compared to traditional MFCs.
  • The system demonstrated a 90% removal of carbon and a 95% removal of nitrogen from the wastewater.
  • The MFC also showed a stable and efficient power generation over a period of 30 days.
