摘要
在微生物燃料电池(MFC)的基础上发展而来的微生物电解电池(MEC)为生物制氢提供了一种全新的方法。本文综述了自2005年MEC发明以来取得的研究进展。简要介绍了MEC制氢的基本原理和系统的评价参数;比较了不同MEC系统结构和电极材料对体系产氢效能的影响;讨论了MEC制氢实际应用中存在的问题和限制因素;提出了MEC制氢今后的研究思路和发展趋势;展望了MEC在利用生物质制氢和有机废水资源化利用中的应用前景。
Microbial electrolysis cells(MEC) invented on the basis of microbial fuel cells(MFC) provide a novel method for biohydrogen production.This paper reviews the research progress of MEC ever since its invention in 2005.The principle of MEC and the evaluating parameters of the system are briefly introduced.Hydrogen production performance of MEC in different system architectures and electrode materials are compared.The existing problems and limiting factors of MEC for its practical utilization are discussed and the future research trends,as well as research approaches of MEC are proposed.Finally,the prospective applications of MEC in hydrogen production from biomass and energy recovery from organic wastewater are also stated.
