The theory, design, construction, and operation of microbial fuel
cells
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs), devices in which bacteria create
electrical power by oxidizing simple compounds such as glucose or
complex organic matter in wastewater, represent a new and promising
approach for generating power. Not only do MFCs clean wastewater,
but they also convert organics in these wastewaters into usable
energy. Given the world's limited supply of fossil fuels and fossil
fuels' impact on climate change, MFC technology's ability to create
renewable, carbon-neutral energy has generated tremendous interest
around the world.
This timely book is the first dedicated to MFCs. It not only serves
as an introduction to the theory underlying the development and
functioning of MFCs, it also serves as a manual for ongoing
research. In addition, author Bruce Logan, a leading pioneer in MFC
research and development, provides practical guidance for the
effective design and operation of MFCs based on his own firsthand
experience.
This reference covers everything you need to fully understand MFCs,
including:
* Key topics such as voltage and power generation, MFC materials and
architecture, mass transfer to bacteria and biofilms, bioreactor
design, and fundamentals of electron transfer
* Applications across a wide variety of scales, from power generation
in the laboratory to approaches for using MFCs for wastewater
treatment
* The role of MFCs in the climate change debate
* Detailed illustrations of bacterial and electrochemical
concepts
* Charts, graphs, and tables summarizing key design and operation
variables
* Practice problems and step-by-step examples
Microbial Fuel Cells, with its easy-to-follow explanations, is
recommended as both a textbook for students and professionals
interested in entering the field and as a complete reference for
more experienced practitioners.
