Gluconobacter Oxydans-Based MFC with PEDOT:PSS/Graphene/Nafion Bioanode for Wastewater Treatment

Abstract: Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are a variety of bioelectrocatalytic devices that utilize the metabolism of microorganisms to generate electric energy from organic matter. This study investigates the possibility of using a novel PEDOT:PSS/graphene/Nafion composite in combination with acetic acid bacteria Gluconobacter oxydans to create a pure culture MFC capable of effective municipal wastewater treatment. The developed MFC was shown to maintain its activity for at least three weeks. The level of COD in municipal … Show more

“…The maximum voltage and the power density obtained in this work are comparable with similar parameters for the devices presented in the recent papers. It is worth noting that compared to the PEDOT:PSS/Graphene/Nafion combination [43], the composition presented in this work provides slightly lower power (due to the absence of graphene), but still allows the MFC to generate electricity for a longer period of time.…”

“…One of the disadvantages of PEDOT is the demonstrated antibacterial effect [ 226 ], as well as the low pH of the composite solution, which can adversely affect the lifetime of the microbial bioanode. To eliminate limitations, the authors of [ 227 ] used the layer-by-layer deposition of a PEDOT:PSS/graphene/Nafion composite in combination with the acetic acid bacteria Gluconobacter oxydans , which are sufficiently resistant to the acidic properties of PEDOT:PSS and Nafion. As a result, a pure-culture microbial BFC was developed that can effectively treat municipal wastewater and shows potential when used in combination with a DC-DC boost converter as part of the Internet of Things technology.…”

“…The bacteria G. oxydans was chosen as an effective biocatalyst. Previously, G. oxydans was successfully used for environmental monitoring in bioelectrochemical systems of all types (based on oxygen electrodes [14], mediator type [27,28], and MFC [29][30][31]). Earlier, during the development of a biosensor based on an oxygen electrode to assess integral toxicity, the sensitivity of bacteria to both the toxic effects of organic pollutants and heavy metals was established [14].…”
