Effect of different substrates on the performance, bacterial diversity, and bacterial viability in microbial fuel cells

Effect of different substrates on the performance, bacterial diversity, and bacterial viability in microbial fuel cells - Bioresource Technology, 100(14), p.3518-3525, 2009 .

Four microbial fuel cells (MFCs)were inoculated with anaerobic sludge and fed four different substrates for over one year. The Coulombic efficiency (CE)and power output varied with different substrates, while the bacterial viability was similar. Acetate fed-MFC showed the highest CE (72.3
