Abstract
Oscillating ambient temperatures cause spikes in output voltage of soil microbial fuel cells, independent of temperature direction. The resulting output is higher than could be achieved at any constant temperature.
Key findings
- Oscillating ambient temperatures cause spikes in output voltage of soil microbial fuel cells.
- The resulting output is higher than could be achieved at any constant temperature.
- The effect is independent of temperature direction.
