Long-term performance of a microbial electrolysis cell operated with periodic disconnection of power supply

the effects of keyword and context methods on pronunciation and receptive/ productive vocabulary of low-intermediate iranian efl learners: short-term and long-term memory in focus

از گذشته تا کنون، تحقیقات بسیاری صورت گرفته است که همگی به گونه ای بر مثمر ثمر بودن استفاده از استراتژی های یادگیری لغت در یک زبان بیگانه اذعان داشته اند. این تحقیق به بررسی تاثیر دو روش مختلف آموزش واژگان انگلیسی (کلیدی و بافتی) بر تلفظ و دانش لغوی فراگیران ایرانی زیر متوسط زبان انگلیسی و بر ماندگاری آن در حافظه می پردازد. به این منظور، تعداد شصت نفر از زبان آموزان ایرانی هشت تا چهارده ساله با...

Improved power and long term performance of microbial fuel cell with Fe-N-C catalyst in air-breathing cathode

Power output limitation is one of the main challenges that needs to be addressed for full-scale applications of the Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) technology. Previous studies have examined electrochemical performance of different cathode electrodes including the development of novel iron based electrocatalysts, however the long-term investigation into continuously operating systems is rare. This wo...

The significance of key operational variables to the enhancement of hydrogen production in a single-chamber microbial electrolysis cell (MEC)

Microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) is one of the promising and cutting-edge technologies for generating hydrogen from wastewater through biodegradation of organic waste by exoelectrogenic microbes. In the MECs, the operational parameters, such as applied voltage (Eap), anode surface area, anode-cathode distance, and N2/CO2 volume ratio have a significant impact on the hydrogen yield and producti...

Performance of a Single Chamber Soil Microbial Fuel Cell at Varied External Resistances for Electric Power Generation

Characterization of light/dark cycle and long-term performance test in a photosynthetic microbial fuel cell

In this paper, the characterization of light/dark cycle in a photosynthetic microbial fuel cell used to recover energy of wastewater was carried out. To this end, a wide range of parameters were measured throughout both periods light/darkness. During the light phase, the electricity production was higher because algae carried out photosynthesis and produced oxygen, which acted as electron accep...
