Abstract:The potential for electricity generation from cow paunch was investigated using microbial fuel cell. The cow paunch was collected from two (2) abattoirs; BOD, COD, Total Solids, Total Volatile Solids, Total Organic Carbon, pH, temperature, and electrical conductivity were evaluated. Isolation and identification of microorganisms from the cow's paunch was done. Cow paunch was used as the substrate in the anode chamber while potassium ferricyanide was used in the cathode chamber as the electron acceptor. The cur… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
