Bioelectricity Generation From Yeast Mediator Mfc Technology
About the Practice
Bioelectricity from yeast cell by using MFC technology. Waste water and yeast cells were used to generate Bioelectricity by using MFC technology. LED bulbs is glown, indicates power generation implementation can be done by MFC yeast cells
Detail:
Yeast microbial fuel cells have received little attention to date. Yeast should be ideal MFC catalyst because they are robust, easily handled, mostly non-pathogenic organisms with high catabolic rates and in some cases a broad substrate spectrum. In the present research, bioelectricity was generated by using yeast cell within pH 6 to 8 and at RT by using MFC technique. Here we showed that bakers yeast transfers electrons to an electrode through the secretion of a reduced molecule that is not detectable when washed cells are first resuspended but which accumulates rapidly in the extracellular environment. It is a single molecule that accumulates to a significant concentration. Single dual chamber and multi chamber method of MFC were used for bioelectricity generation under anaerobic condition for 24 hours. On 12 hrs in multi chamber method 2.26V were generated.The bulb (LED) glowed prominently at this voltage. From this study it is concluded that bekers yeast is a good candidate for bioelectricity generation in a MFC technique.
