Performance investigation of osmotic microbial fuel cell under different operational conditions: Effect of aeration mode, external resistance, and substrate concentrations by Hussein M. Abdelmohsen, Abdelsalam Elawwad

“…There were also clear trade-offs in operational strategies: direct cathode aeration maximized energy recovery (2.67 W/m³) and COD removal (79 %), while unaerated conditions resulted in the greatest water flux (1.54 LMH) at the cost of lower electrical efficiencies. Several operational parameters were also optimized, including the COD load of the substrate (1500 mg/L), with polarization analysis suggesting that higher COD concentrations were associated with electrochemical and biological constraints that limit power output. …”
