Effects Of Process Parameters On Geobacter Sulfurreducens And Bacillus Subtilis From Dewatered Sludge For Electricity Generation In Membrane – Less Microbial Fuel Cell
The membrane-less microbial fuel cell (ML-MFC) is a cutting-edge renewable energy technology that might help to solve the world's energy dilemma. Electrogenic bacteria (EB) which are Geobacter sulfurreducens (GS) and Bacillus subtilis (BS) served as a biocatalyst in the ML-MFC, allowing it to c...

The membrane-less microbial fuel cell (ML-MFC) is a cutting-edge renewable energy technology that might help to solve the world's energy dilemma. Electrogenic bacteria (EB) which are Geobacter sulfurreducens (GS) and Bacillus subtilis (BS) served as a biocatalyst in the ML-MFC, allowing it to create power electrochemically. The ML-MFC employed dewatered sludge from two separate wastewater treatment plants (A – IWK Juru and B – IWK Butterworth). From the analysis of elements, sludge A showed a large amount of magnesium and calcium elements than sludge B which facilitate electron transfer in ML - MFC. The performance of the ML-MFC utilising sludge A and B as substrate were then assessed using the one-factor-at-a-time (OFAT) approach, followed by response surface methodology (RSM) using a quadratic model through Central Composite Design. The best pH 9, electrode distance (ED) 4 cm, the moisture content (MC) 40 % (v/w) and the temperature 40 ℃ obtained the optimum responses; biomass (1.88 mg/L), COD removal 46.52 % (202 mg/L) and power density ( 7.406 mW/m2) in the preliminary OFAT research.
