Effect of temperature on electricity generation of single-chamber microbial fuel cells with proton exchange membrane

摘要：

　　The effects of temperature on electricity performance and microbial activity were investigated in single-chamber microbial fuel cell with proton exchange membrane (S-PEM-MFC) using glucose as substrate with phosphate buffer solution(PBS).The results showed that S-PEM-MFC able to adapt to a wide temperature range of 11,18,25,30 and 35℃.The open circuit voltage,polarization,power density and microbial activity of S-PEM-MFC were increased with increasing temperature from 11 to 30℃.The maximum power density were 193.8mW,m-3 at 30℃,Compared to 30℃,the battery open circuit voltage increased by only 4.8% at 35℃,while the polarization and power density is almost the same.These results demonstrate that according to the principle of economy which 30℃ should be the optimal operating temperature of S-PEM-MFC.
