Alternatively, the chemical energy stored in food waste could be used for power generation. Here we review the conversion of food waste into electricity with focus on microbial fuel cells, nanogenerators, system optimization and scaling up, environmental impact, application to sensors, electricity ...
Dr. White, a lecturer inthermal powerin the School of Mathematics, Computer Science and Engineering, says: One of the most promising groups of waste-heat recovery technologies are those that are able to convert this waste heat into electricity. However, current technologies, typically based on th...
we considered synergies that could enhance environmental sustainability, reduce costs and promote circular economy practices. Owing to the interest expressed by many decision-makers and members of the public in the water–energy–food nexus, we focussed on practices that reinforce the spread...
The use of biogas produced by anaerobic digestion of wastewater is an application that is increasingly used to generate electricity. This practice also provides environmental and economic benefits [44,79,80]. As a result of anaerobic fermentation, hydrogen can be obtained from whey. In the process...
Many microorganisms that generate electricity use carbohydrates and different types of compounds for their proliferation, which is why there would be a direct relationship where, when increasing the values of the voltage and electric current, it would be due to the increase in the percentage of ...
The usage of the microbial fuel cell (MFC) as a renewable energy tool is a collective solution to this crisis. This project aims to find a new renewable source of energy as well as to prove and demonstrate the generation of electricity from food waste using MFC. Several manipulated variables...
This pollutes groundwater, soil and creates a danger to aquatic life. Therefore, it is advantageous to use these waste materials in the form of urea as fuel to generate power using Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC). In this work, we studied the compost soil MFC(CSMFC) unlike typical MFC with ...
In this sense, solar panels, that generate electricity and/or thermal energy, in a very wide range of scale, can provide the energy requirements of anaerobic digesters, increasing the efficiency of the biogas production process [20–22]. In this work, a novel hybrid technology is proposed ...
Some of these advantages are the reduction of environment harmful emissions and the ability to produce electricity independently of an external power source (Mahinpey and Gomez, 2016). Biomass, waste or otherwise is a resource which can be processed into various chemicals and fuels. Biomass ...
