Prototype design and overview of a low price microbial fuel cell

Contribution of configurations, electrode and membrane materials, electron transfer mechanisms, and cost of components on the current and future development of microbial fuel cells

“…In the literature also is reported the use of other electron acceptors, such as manganese dioxide, nitrobenzene, ferric iron, hydrogen phosphate, hydrogen peroxide, ferricyanide [226] , copper chloride, potassium hexacyanoferrate (K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ]), perchlorate and nitrates , hydrochloric acid (HCl), sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), and nitric oxide (NO) [11] , [148] , [159] , [240] , [241] , [242] . Among these, (K 3 [Fe(CN) 6 ]) is the most widely used, one of the main reasons is the low overpotential generated when carbon-based material is used as cathode [120] Additionally, the ferric ion complex increased electron transfer rates [243] .…”

Technology Advancements and Trendsin Development of Proton ExchangeMembrane Fuel Cell Hybrid ElectricVehicles in India: A Review

“…The decision to decrease the usage of coal fired power stations and the internal combustion engines (ICEs) and similar polluting equipment were taken in line with this policy. Fuel cell electric vehicle are zero emission vehicles and have longer life [8][9][10]. Government policies in India are encouraging to development of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) vehicles in automotive applications [11][12].…”
