Volume 6, Issue 1 , February 2019, , Pages 21-28

https://doi.org/10.30501/jree.2019.95555

Abstract
  The effect of the thickness of ceramic membrane on the productivity of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) was investigated with respect to the electricity generation and domestic wastewater treatment efficiencies. The thickest ceramic membrane (9 mm) gained the highest coulombic efficiency (27.58±4.2 ...  Read More
