ABSTRACT In response to the growing need for eco-friendly and sustainable energy sources, it is crucial to explore alternative solutions. Microbial fuel cells, or MFCs, provide a promising avenue for electricity production. In this paper, the study aims to find the most efficient combination of microorganisms and organic matter for enhanced electricity production under environmental conditions. A series of experiments found that the combination of stevia and wastewater at 25˚C and no exposure to UV light proved to be most efficient in electricity production, even when compared to the control variable of Shewanella. The findings underscore the feasibility of utilizing Stevia fermentation liquid and wastewater in MFCs as a sustainable alternative to conventional energy sources, providing insights for future developments in environmentally friendly solutions. |
