Microbial fuel cell (MFC) technology offers the dual advantages of wastewater treatment and electricity generation. Research efforts have been made to improve its power output. However, MFC seems limited at pilot scale and power outputs appear to have plateaued. As such, some integrated technologies have emerged based on MFC. These hybrid technologies have the larger potential for scaling up and practical application compared with the pure MFC. Therefore, in their review the authors present these emerged technologies and discuss the development tendency and the challenges. The review can hopefully provide a framework to identify priorities for further research on this area.
