Abstract
BMFC power output is correlated with costal sediment parameters to predict BMFC performance in the natural environment.
Key findings
- BMFC power output is significantly correlated with sediment grain size.
- Sediment porosity has a positive impact on BMFC performance.
- Organic matter content in sediments is a key factor in determining BMFC efficiency.
