Synthesis And Characterizations Of Biomass-Based Graphene Metal Oxide Anodes In Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) Applications

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) ranked among the most promising bioelectrochemical approaches for generating electrical energy while removing pollutants from wastewater, however, their relatively poor performance, has limited their commercial viability. The fabrication of advanced electrode material for...
