Electric power production in a microbial fuel cell using <i>Escherichia coli</i> and <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>, synthetic wastewater as substrate, carbon cloth and graphite as electrodes, and methylene blue as mediator. Laboratory scale. / Producción de energía eléctrica en una celda de combustible microbiana usando <i>Escherichia coli</i> y <i>Pseudomonas aeruginosa</i>, agua residual sintética como sustrato, tela de carbón y grafito como electrodos y azul de metileno como mediador. Escala laboratorio

Microbial fuel cells (MFC) are an alternative for electric power production based on the oxidation of organic matter, for that reason waste waters are been considered as source of organic matter which can be transformed by microorganisms with the capacity of generating electric power. Therefore, the...
