Abstract
Key findings
- The MFC achieved a maximum power density of 1.2 W/m², with a removal efficiency of 80% for COD and 90% for ammonia.
- Optimization of the anode and cathode materials improved the power generation by 25%.
- The MFC was able to treat wastewater with a high concentration of organic matter, making it a promising technology for industrial applications.
