A microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a sustainable technology which commonly uses graphite as cathode for the production of hydrogen peroxide. Besides, water formation through four-electron oxygen reduction mechanism is a commonly observed product. Determining the selectivity of H 2 O 2 /H 2 O reaction th...
