AI Article Synopsis
- The study examines how sodium lauryl sulfate, an anionic surfactant, affects the attachment of electrogenic bacteria strain 1-I to carbon cloth electrodes in microbial fuel cells (MFCs).
- Results showed that lower concentrations (10 and 100 mg/l) increased bacterial attachment, while higher concentrations (200, 400, and 800 mg/l) had no significant impact on cell attachment.
- The strain 1-I displayed strong resistance to sodium lauryl sulfate, suggesting its potential use in treating domestic wastewater with MFC technology.
Article Abstract
Results of a study into the effect of anionic surfactant sodium lauryl sulfate on the sorption of cells of the electrogenic bacteria strain 1-I on the surface of carbon cloth used as electrodes in microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology are presented. Investigations using spectrophotometry, microscopy and microbiology revealed an increase in the degree of sorption of microbial cells on carbon cloth under the action of sodium lauryl sulfate at concentrations of 10 and 100 mg/l. The sorption of cells did not significantly differ from the control at a surfactant content of 200, 400 and 800 mg/l. It had no negative effect on bacterial growth in the concentration range from 10 to 800 mg/l. Due to the fairly high resistance of the electrogenic strain 1-I to sodium lauryl sulfate, a widespread component of wastewater, it may be considered as a prospective bioagent for the treatment of domestic wastewater using MFC technology.
