Microbial fuel cells are a novel process concept that enables organics, such as sugars, to be converted directly to electricity with the help of naturally occurring microorganisms. This technology has particularly exciting applications in the environmental field, namely in wastewater treatment. It offers significant benefits over current processes, particularly reduced energy consumption or even electricity generation and lower sludge production. This project will demonstrate the performance and application of such microbial fuel cells for the removal of organic and nitrogen-based pollutants from wastewater. If successful, this technology offers major advances in both water treatment and renewable energy aspects.

微生物燃料电池是一种新的工艺概念，它使有机物（如糖）能够在天然微生物的帮助下直接转化为电能。该技术在环境领域，即废水处理中具有特别令人兴奋的应用。它提供了显着的好处比目前的工艺，特别是减少能源消耗，甚至发电和减少污泥产量。该项目将展示这种微生物燃料电池用于去除废水中的有机和氮基污染物的性能和应用。如果成功，这项技术将在水处理和可再生能源方面取得重大进展。
