“…Many nanoparticles have been used in the past years for water purification. Silver nanoparticles help remove pesticides and halogenated organics, Titania nanoparticles removes arsenic and also disinfect the water, Iron oxide nanoparticles remove heavy metals including arsenic, lead, chromium, zinc, copper and ceramic nanopowder also is used for disinfection of water [55][56][57][58][59].…”

The release of textile dyes from the industries to the environment has become a significant health issue to humans and their surroundings, where a large number of dyes are wasted to the nearby water during the dyeing process. Therefore, the practice of the utilization of biosynthesized nanoparticles from numerous biological systems has been described, out of which plant material is considered the most appropriate method. The usage of plant material not only makes the procedure ecological but also their abundance makes it more cost-effective. The present study aims to biologically produce selenium nanoparticle using Mucuna pruriens seed powder and apply it in the degradation of dyes and removal of pathogenic bacterial cultures from pathogen-containing lake water using an optimum concentration of selenium nanoparticles. The production of selenium nanoparticles was characterized via visual coloration from colorless to brown solution which was checked using UV–Visible spectrophotometer, the crystalline structure was analyzed using X-ray diffraction, the morphology was analyzed with transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, which was in the range of 90–120 nm, with stable spherical monodisperse characteristics. The surface potential was checked using zeta potential, while the Atomic Force Microscopy gave information on the roughness of the nanoparticles, and the presence of –OH, −COO, aromatic groups were confirmed with Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy. The biosynthesized nanoparticles were then analyzed for its environmental applications, like degradation of dyes from industrial wastes and checking its antimicrobial activities.

“…Compared with the pristine electrode, the ohmic resistance was reduced from 12.09 Ω to 0.19 Ω and the charge transfer resistance was reduced from 11.55 Ω to 0.57 Ω. Owing to this facilitated electron transport, the power density was enhanced from 123.5 mW m À 2 to 161.5 mW m À 2 . [174] Similar with FeO, Fe 2 O 3 is featured with the high abundance and strong affinity towards the membrane of microbe proteins. [178,179] When it was simply electrodeposited on carbon cloth, the carbon surface turned rougher and the specific surface area was enhanced, resulting in an efficient adsorption of microbes and electron transport between the anode and bacteria.…”

“…Various Fe-based compounds such as oxides, sulfides, carbides and spinels, have been utilized with carbon matrix to form a composite anode owing to the outstanding electron transport between Fe(II) and Fe(III), anodic stability, good biocompatibility and high abundance. [173][174][175][176][177] For example, FeO nanoparticles were coated on the carbon paper to form an anode, which possessed an enhanced wettability reflected from the lower water contact angle and less anti-bacteria activity based on the biofilm formation. The resulting power density was increased by 31 % and up to 140.5 mW m À 2 with a much smaller resistance of 0.245 Ω compared with the 7.23 Ω of the bare one.…”

site). The relationship is demonstrated in depth between the physicochemical properties of the anode surface/interface/bulk (porosity, surface area, hydrophilicity, partical size, charge, roughness, etc.) and the bioelectrochemical performances (electron transfer, electrolyte diffusion, capacitance, toxicity, start-up time, current, power density, voltage, etc.). An outlook for future work is also proposed.

In this research was used the yeast Sacharomyces cerevisiae as a fuel in microbial fuel cells using Zn-Zn and Zn-Cu electrodes, in order to study which of these two systems produced greater bioelectricity. The yeast Sacharomyces cerevisiae media (API 20 C AUX) was successfully identified (86%). The microbial fuel cell with Zn-Cu electrodes managed to generate higher voltage than the cells with Zn-Zn electrodes, the maximum voltage generation peak being 0.761 and 0.0089 V respectively. Both cells showed slightly acidic and neutral pH during monitoring. The maximum power density values and current density shown by the Zn-Cu cell was 8,196 mW/cm2 to 8,383 mA/cm2 respectively, on the other hand, the Zn-Zn cell was able to generate 0.5684 mW/cm2 to 0.238 mA/cm2 of the density of power and current density. This research work gives a new way of producing bioelectricity using low cost microbial fuel cell using as a fuel a yeast widely used in the beer industry.
