Modern trend of anodes in microbial fuel cells (MFCs): An overview
Abstract
Abstract Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are highly efficient bioelectrochemical systems in which bacteria are utilized to oxidize the organic substrate and produce electricity. The main component of an MFCs is the anode, in which bacterial attachment is promoted and the generation and transfer of electrons occurs. Therefore, the interest of introducing novel and innovative anode materials for attaining a high performance of MFCs is a concern that is growing in the modern era. In this review article, different conventional and modern anode materials are briefly discussed considering their advantages and limitations. Among all, the natural biomass-derived materials were found as one of the best sources to meet the present challenges to utilize them as anodes in MFCs. The natural derived anodes presented some limitations which can be addressed through metal oxide composites as described in this article. The oxidation mechanism of pollutants on the surface of anode along with their bacterial interactions are also briefly summarized. This review is limited to the performance and development of the anode in MFCs.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
