Abstract

Osmotic microbial fuel cell (OsMFC) is an emerging biotechnology that integrates forward osmosis (FO) membrane into microbial fuel cells. Selection of an appropriate draw solute (DS) could affect both water extraction and electricity generation. Herein, we have investigated a promising DS - EDTA-Na2, a widely used chelating agent. The OsMFC with the EDTA DS achieved 779.6
