Research Progress in Modification of Anode Materials for Microbial Fuel-cell

微生物燃料电池(microbial fuel cell,MFC)是以微生物为阳极催化剂,将有机质的化学能直接转化成电能的装置,处理废物的同时产电。文章简要介绍了微生物燃料电池阳极材料的研究进展,概述了改性后阳极材料的产电性能,并提出阳极材料改性的不足以及展望。

Microbial fuel cell （MFC）, a new technical device that uses microbes as an anode catalyst to convert the chemical energy of organic matter into electrical energy directly, is capable of treating waste and generating electricity simultaneously. In this paper, advances in the researches of anode materials of MFC were reviewed, particularly about the power generation performance of the modified anode materials. Moreover, the drawbacks of the modified anode materials and the needs for further improvement are put forward.
