Abstract

Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) use bacteria as a catalyst to oxidize organic and/or inorganic substrates and produce electric currents. Wastewater could function as an electron donor in the anode chamber and, thus, represents a very promising energy source. Catholytes, as electron acceptors, influence power production in MFCs by increasing the availability of electrons. The present research aims to determine the influence of catholyte concentration on current production in an aerobic two-chamber MFC. Aerobic treatment was carried out in the two-chamber MFC operated in an incubator at 37  1 °C with and without aeration in the cathode chamber. Wastewater from the chocolate industry was used as a substrate and oxidized by using a bacterial consortium isolated from the sludge wastewater itself. The catholytes used were 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.3 N NaCl. In the presence of NaCl, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency in the cathode chamber of the MFC was approximately 65%–83% without aeration and 76%–89% with aeration after 72 hours. The current density increased as the catholyte concentration increased to 0.05 N, after which the oxidation process shifted from the anode chamber to the cathode chamber. Addition of O2 to the cathode chamber influenced current production.

Abstract

Abstract - The need of energy in Indonesia was increasing and encouraging to develope some efficient renewable technology and environmental friendly researches. One of the alternative energy that can be used is Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC). Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) works by using microorganisms to degrade organic compounds that can generate electrical energy. Several studies have been conducted on Single Chamber MFC. In this study, conducted to determine the effect of wastewater treatment through Stack Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) on current producing. The system used carbon brush electrode, Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) as cation exchanger, tofu liquid waste as source of substrate, and bacterial isolated tofu liquid waste as degrading organic substrate, that has known in system's ability to generate electrical energy as well as reduce COD value. Optical Density (OD) value was measured to determine the metabolic activity of bacteria, with wavelength 570 nm. The research showed that Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) that lasted for 72 hours resulted potential of electrical current 0.96 mA at Stack MFC and Blank 0,43 mA. The acquisition of electric current Stack MFC was greater than Blank Single Chamber. In addition, it also decreased Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) value in the range of 28-38%.
