Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are a type of Microbial Electrochemical System (MES) that harness the power of microorganisms to generate bio-electricity through the oxidation of organic matter. This mini-review highlights the potential of MFCs as a renewable energy technology, with applications in wastewater treatment, bio-electrochemical systems, and bio-energy production. The review also discusses the challenges and limitations of MFCs, including low power density and efficiency.
