Abstract:Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) have garnered significant attention in power generation and wastewater treatment fields. Current MFCs have relatively low power density due to limited biofilm colonization and sluggish extracellular electron transfer (EET) processes. Here, a hybrid hydrogel (PPy-CMC-MXene) was prepared by doping MXene with an inexpensive and readily available biomass source carboxymethyl cellulose and polypyrrole. The MFC equipped with the PPy-CMC-MXene/CC anode exhibited a 2-, 30-, 59-, and 4.8-fol… Show more
