[Electricity generation using the short-arm air-cathode microbial fuel cell].

The short-arm air-cathode microbial fuel cell (ACMFC) was constructed using a cramp to fix the proton exchange membrane (PEM) and carbon paper with 0.5 mg/cm2 onto the short-arm side of the anode chamber. Exoelectrogens on the surface of graphite rod were enriched by a sludge microbial fuel cell from the anaerobic digestion sludge.

[Construction of sugar-based microbial fuel cells by dissimilatory metal reduction bacteria].

Dissimilatory Metal Reduction Bacteria play an important role in the anaerobic environment. This kind of bacteria gains energy by coupling the oxidation of organic acid or sugars to the reduction of metal oxides. The graphite electrode rode can also be used as the final electron acceptor due to its similarity to solid metal oxides.
