Electricity generation through a photo sediment microbial fuel cell using algae at the cathode

Sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) are bio-electrochemical devices generating electricity from redox gradients occurring across the sediment–water interface. Sediment microbial carbon-capture cell (SMCC), a modified SMFC, uses algae grown in the overlying water of sediment and is considered as a promising system for power generation along with algal cultivation. In this study, the ...

Biofuels System

An algae cultivation or biofuel production facility should be designed to take advantage of its physical location and improve the local communities it serves. Our cultivation system is actually a variety of arrays and components that are intended to be custom packaged to suit the site, the climate, and available resources.
