Benthic microbial fuel cells (BMFCs) are a class of bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) that are an emerging technology under development for applications of persistent ocean monitoring. BMFCs function via anaerobic bacteria metabolizing organic matter in sediment and providing electrons to buried anodes. These anodes are electrically connected via an external circuit to an aerobic cathode positioned...
Benthic microbial fuel cells (BMFCs) have the potential to provide long-term, sustainable power for undersea devices. BMFCs operate by harnessing organic matter in the sediment as a fuel source. Field systems have demonstrated power densities in the range of 5 to 20 mW/m2 depending on size and operating conditions. Operation of anodes under anaerobic conditions is critical to the functionality of...
Benthic Microbial Fuel Cells (BMFCs) ability to provide long-lasting power is an attractive trait for powering oceanographic equipment requiring long duration deployments. Recent work to scale up BMFC power output with large surface areas (greater than 1 meter squared) has revealed a need to improve power output to make BMFCs viable power sources for a wider breadth of undersea equipment. To improve...
