Problems solved by technology

There is also MoS in the field of MFCs 2 Anode research reports, for example, the Chinese invention patent application with the application publication number CN110729487A discloses a microbial fuel cell based on a molybdenum disulfide composite material as an anode. The anode used in the microbial fuel cell is molybdenum disulfide / carbon cloth or conductive Polymer / molybdenum disulfide / carbon cloth, molybdenum disulfide / carbon cloth anode is formed by arranging carbon in a solution containing thiourea, sodium molybdate, P123 and deionized water for hydrothermal reaction, washing and drying, but Molybdenum disulfide itself has poor conductivity, and the conductivity of the anode is improved by compounding a conductive polymer on the molybdenum disulfide / carbon cloth anode, but the specific surface area of ​​the anode after compounding the conductive polymer is still small, which is difficult for microorganisms to attach and grow provide enough space

Abstract

The invention relates to an anode for a microbial fuel cell, a preparation method of the anode and the microbial fuel cell, and belongs to the technical field of microbial fuel cells. The anode for the microbial fuel cell comprises an electrode material and a modification material attached to the surface of the electrode material, the modification material comprises molybdenum disulfide nanosheets and carbon nanotubes dispersed among the molybdenum disulfide nanosheets. According to the anode for the microbial fuel cell, the modification material attached to the surface of the electrode material disperses the carbon nanotubes with good conductivity among the molybdenum disulfide nanosheets, so that the conductivity of the modification material can be remarkably enhanced, and the electroactive surface area of the anode can be increased; more sites and spaces are provided for attachment and growth of microorganisms, so that a compact biological membrane can be formed on the surface of the anode, the starting time of the microbial fuel cell is shortened, and the maximum output voltage and the maximum output power density of the microbial fuel cell are increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an anode for a microbial fuel cell, a preparation method thereof, and a microbial fuel cell, which belong to the microbial fuel cell. Background technique [0002] Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) is a promising clean energy technology, but low output power density is still a bottleneck hindering its practical application. The composition and structure of the anode is considered to be a key factor affecting the power output of MFCs cells. Traditional carbon-based materials such as carbon felt (CF) and carbon paper (CP) are widely used due to their good biocompatibility, electrical conductivity, chemical stability, and low cost. However, the relatively limited surface area and electrocatalytic activity of these materials are not conducive to the attached growth of microorganisms and extracellular electron transfer. In order to improve the power output of MFCs, designing and preparing nanomaterial-modified carbon electrodes with exc...
