Abstract
The results of the development of an experimental plant-microbial fuel cell (PMFC) construction are presented. It is based on cultivation by the panoponics method and aimed at the joint production of electricity and plant products. The value of bioelectric potentials (BEP) is ~ 100 mV when it is generated in a multi-day mode using a vegetable culture of lettuce. The importance of providing surface electrical contact of roots with electrodes is shown. It is noted that both redox reactions in the nutrient solution and the root system of plants can act as an electromotive force (EMF). It is shown that creating a battery based on the constructed PMFCs, leading to the summation of electrical parameters for a long period (more than 3 days), is possible only in the case of uniformity of the elements included in the electric circuit.
