Summary Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) are one of the most promising innovation amongst bio‐electrochemical systems for biohydrogen production. A wide variety of wastewaters and organic wastes that is, sodium acetate, glucose, glycerol, domestic wastewater, sugar industries effluent, food processing wastewater, industrial wastewater, etc. can be utilized as substrates in MEC. The objective of this comprehensive review is to study the effects of reactor configuration, electrode materials, and substrates on the maximum hydrogen production rate (HPR) and columbic efficiency (CE) of the MEC system. The obtained results were summarized based on reactor configuration, substrate concentration, electrodes, applied voltage, HPR, and CE. Despite this significant progress, MEC technology still requires substantial developments to be recognized as a commercially viable technology. At the end of this review, the most promising future perspectives were also discussed which could be the appealing solutions for various problems associated with MEC technology. This review supports energy engineers and researchers to analyze the performance of various MECs for future assistance in research.

Mevastatin is one of the common pharmaceuticals found in wastewaters, and its biodegradation is still an environmental problem due to its recalcitrant properties. Although various biological, chemical and physical methods have been investigated for the removal of mevastin, microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) have not been examined, yet. MECs are new generation biotechnological tools used in hydrogen energy production. In this study, the effects of mevastatin on hydrogen production in MECs were investigated for the first time. MECs produced hydrogen gas in the presence of mevastatin, and an increase in hydrogen production was observed. Over 90% of the mevastatin were removed in MECs. These results also showed that the fermentation process associated with carbon dioxide production can favor hydrogen production with mevastatin. In conclusion, the efficiency of hydrogen production in microbial cells can be increased by the use of wastewaters contaminated with mevastatin.

Role of bioelectrochemical systems for the remediation of emerging contaminants from wastewater: A review

et al. 2021

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are a unique group of wastewater remediating technology that possesses the added advantage of valuable recovery with concomitant wastewater treatment. Moreover, due to the application of robust microbial biocatalysts in BESs, effective removal of emerging contaminants (ECs) can be accomplished in these BESs. Thus, this review emphasizes the recent demonstrations pertaining to the removal of complex organic pollutants of emerging concern present in wastewater through BES.Owing to the recalcitrant nature of these pollutants, they are not effectively removed through conventional wastewater treatment systems and thereby are discharged into the environment without proper treatment. Application of BES in terms of ECs removal and degradation mechanism along with valuables that can be recovered are discussed. Moreover, the factors affecting the performance of BES, like biocatalyst, substrate, salinity, and applied potential are also summarized. In addition, the present review also elucidates the occurrence and toxic nature of ECs as well as future recommendations pertaining to the commercialization of this BES technology for the removal of ECs from wastewater. Therefore, the present review intends to aid the researchers in developing more efficient BESs for the removal of ECs from wastewater.
