Influence of the operational parameters on bioelectricity generation in continuous microbial fuel cell, experimental and computational fluid dynamics modelling

This study investigates the effects of operational parameters on bioelectricity generation in a continuous microbial fuel cell (MFC) using both experimental and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling approaches. The results show that pH, temperature, and hydraulic retention time significantly influence the MFC's performance, with optimal conditions yielding a maximum power density of 1.35 W/m³. CFD modeling accurately predicted the MFC's behavior, providing valuable insights into the underlying electrochemical and hydrodynamic processes.
