Utilization of natural and supplemental biofuels for harvesting energy from marine sediments

Creator:

Nielsen, Mark E.

Abstract:

A benthic microbial fuel cell (BMFC) is an electrochemical device that generates current from the redox gradient at the sediment-water interface. Early prototypes had anodes buried in anoxic sediments and cathodes in overlying water. The BMFCs described in this dissertation are based on a chamber design that enables the use...
