Abstract

Electricity generation and treatment of sweet potato-shochu waste, acidic and organic-rich slurry, was examined using cassette-electrode microbial fuel cells (CE-MFCs). Among CE-MFCs with raw (73 g-chemical oxygen demand chromium CODCr/L) and different concentration of diluted sweet potato-shochu waste (0.5, 1, 5, 10, and 20 g-CODCr/L) without pH control, the maximum power density (1.2 W/m3) and CODCr removal efficiency (67.4
