Microbial Fuel Cell
|
Available for single, double, and three-chamber configurations and photoelectrochemical cell
Features
The MxC operational volume is 100-500 ml. It is equipped with 1 large bottle opening and 3 multi-purposed ports. These ports are used for reference electrode, gas purging, and filling solution, Gas purging maintains a high dissolved oxygen microbial fuel cell or performs deaeration. Quartz window for photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell available
