Abstract
Microbial fuel cell (MFC) is a pivotal technological development that includes bioelectricity generation from organic and inorganic matter. The commercialization of MFC is associated with the implementation of MFCs and investigation of potential economic benefits. Knowledge from MFC manufacturing and advances in our understanding of the economies of scale are now demonstrating innovative opportunities for MFC commercialization. In this chapter, we review the advent of field trials of MFCs as well as implementation in rural areas over the past decade. Furthermore, we analyze the power generation capacity and energy conversion efficiency with the aim of illuminating commercialization requirements and challenges of scaling up. Moreover, the chapter surveys cost-effective resources for MFC technology.
