Abstract

Key findings

  • The CW-MFC with augmented electroactive bacteria showed a 2.5-fold increase in power density compared to the control.
  • The system was able to remove 95% of the textile dye and 90% of the chemical oxygen demand (COD) from the wastewater.
  • The augmented CW-MFC also showed improved stability and longevity compared to the control.
