  • Life Cycle Assessments for Wastewater Treatment and the Feasibility Study of Microbial Fuel Cell Technology

    Creator:
    Chien, Ku-Huan
    Abstract:
    The thesis documents research about combining the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit Program with the Impact 2002+ methodology to conduct a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) for wastewater treatment processes. The LCA for the operational phase of a local wastewater treatment plant was performed and the environmental impacts caused...

  • Cathode development and reactor design for scaling-up microbial fuel cells

    Creator:
    Janicek, Anthony M.
    Abstract:
    Developing new wastewater treatment technologies which will off-set the high-energy cost associated with treatment is necessary to maintain both water and energy security. Microbial fuel cell technology represents one such option. However, there are still many obstacles to overcome before practical application of this technology can be realized. Improving cathode...

  • Design, Construction, and Evaluation of a Scaled-Up Air-Cathode Microbial Fuel Cell

    Creator:
    Fulton, Nathan J.
    Abstract:
    Presented in this report is an investigation of the design, construction, and operation of scaled-up cloth electrode assembly (CEA) air-cathode microbial fuel cells (MFCs). 40 mL MFCs were designed and constructed using either single or double CEAs with carbon cloth electrodes. The MFCs were evaluated using acetate media, municipal wastewater,...
