Author Description

Microbial Fuel Cells for Environmental and Energy Sustainability: Combining Electrochemistry with Bioprocess presents a comprehensive discussion and analysis of the design, operation, and application of microbial fuel cells. With an emphasis on optimizing performance and applications, the book explores the latest developments, from electrodes and membranes, to genetic engineering and artificial intelligence. Sections cover the design and construction of microbial cells, explore the use of different microorganisms for power generation, discuss the operation and control of microbial fuel cells, including environmental conditions, electron mediators, and intelligent control, and review the various applications of microbial fuel cells. A final section considers the challenges and prospects of microbial fuel cells, including new technologies, applications, and scale-up. - Examines the development and modification of non-biological components in microbial fuel cells, such as electrodes, membranes, and electron mediators - Analyzes the feasibility of various advanced technologies, such as 3D printing, genetic engineering, and intelligent control to improve the performance of microbial fuel cells - Critically reviews the applications of microbial fuel cells, including wastewater treatment, valorization of lignocellulosic biomass wastes, bioremediation, biosensors, and the production of value-added products
