Abstract
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are bioelectrochemical systems which enable the conversion of chemical energy directly into electrical energy with microorganism. Studies focused on using organic materials of waste to increase power production performance. In this study, two different MFC reactors were investigated to produce electricity using domestic wastewater. The highest current and power density were 1385 mA/m 2 and 16 mW/m 2 at Ti-TiO2/Nafion combination with 78% COD removal. Ti-TiO2/CMI7000 assemblies generated 750 mA/m² of current densities and 5 mW/m² of power density and HRT of 1 day was found favorable for MFC system.
