## Abstract To improve cathodic efficiency and sustainability of microbial fuel cell (MFC), graphite fibre brush (GFB) was examined as cathode material for power production in biocatalysed‐cathode MFC. Following 133‐h mixed culturing of electricity‐producing bacteria, the MFC could generate a repro
OVERVIEW: Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are an emerging technology which directly converts chemical energy stored in organic matter to electricity. Driven by the increasing concern over the energy-climate crisis and environment pollution, MFCs have been developed rapidly in the past decade. Currently,
## Abstract BACKGROUND: Hydrogen peroxide (H~2~O~2~) is an important chemical product, and this study investigated its synthesis at the cathode of a microbial fuel cell (MFC) system using spectrographically pure graphite (SPG) rods as cathode electrode. RESULTS: Electrochemical methods showed that
Alkyl glycosides with long hydrocarbon and long carbohydrate chains are biodegradable surfactants with attractive physico-chemical properties and low toxicity. Potential application areas include pharmaceutical preparations and cosmetics. Unfortunately, they are very difficult to synthesize. Chemica
