- This research investigated the use of electrochemically functionalized graphene as anode materials in microbial fuel cells with remarkable improvements over the conventional candidates. The entire cell construction was based on nonprecious (bio)electrocatalysts with significant implications in terms of scalability and performance. Additionally, the facile electrochemical functionalization of graphene proved quite effective with enhanced biocurrent generation. This was evidenced by extensive electrochemical characterizations showing consistently higher values during long cell cycling conditions. It was funded by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, Discovery and Discovery Accelerator Grant Programs.
