Abstract

Microbial fuel cell ( MFC ) represents a new method for electricity generation and waste water treatment. Microbial fuel cells are devices that can use bacterial metabolism to produce an electrical current from wide range organic substrates. This research explores the application of Double chamber MFC in generating electricity using different waste water from Jabalpur. In order to obtain the aim of this research, a system of MFC with microbes has been used. Based on the result of different substrates, it can be reported that the maximum voltage generated among all the four substrates is 396mV at day five by slurry.
