Abstract

Key findings

  • MFC prototypes have shown promising results in wastewater treatment, with some achieving high removal rates of pollutants and energy generation.
  • The efficacy of MFCs in Zimbabwe is hindered by limited resources, infrastructure, and expertise, but still holds potential for sustainable wastewater management.
  • MXene-based MFCs have shown improved performance compared to traditional MFCs, but further research is needed to scale up their application.
