Abstract

Key findings

  • The ZrP-modified proton exchange membrane showed a 25% increase in power generation compared to the unmodified membrane.
  • The modified membrane also demonstrated a 30% reduction in COD removal time.
  • The study suggests that the ZrP modification improves the membrane's proton conductivity and reduces its internal resistance.
