Microbial fuel cell coupled ecological floating bed for enhancing bioelectricity generation and nitrogen removal

Xiao-Li Yang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the performance of an ecological floating bed-microbial fuel cell (EFB-MFC) coupled system for electricity generation and nitrogen removal. Results showed that introducing plants into the MFC system reduced resistance and increased voltage, while also improving NH4+-N and TN removal efficiency. Water spinach system showed the best performance, but rotten roots of windmill grass released extra NH4+-N which impaired nitrogen removal. Radial oxygen loss and root exudates played significant roles in enhancing electricity generation and nitrogen removal. Electrical stimulation of enzyme activity related to nitrogen removal and migration of NH4+-N contributed to enhancing nitrogen removal.

Organic matter removal and nitrogen transformation by a constructed wetland-microbial fuel cell system with simultaneous bioelectricity generation

Thais Gonzalez et al.

Summary: Microbial fuel cells integrated into constructed wetlands showed promising results in organic matter removal and nitrogen transformation for wastewater treatment. The presence of vegetation, particularly Schoenoplectus californicus, and the operation of the systems under batch-mode conditions led to improved performance in terms of chemical oxygen demand removal efficiency and NH4+-N removal efficiency. The study also highlighted the significance of anaerobic oxidation on the anodes in enhancing wastewater treatment performance.
