The main reasons that make mankind look for new sources of energy are decreasing dependence on fossil fuels and reducing pollution. Wastewater treatment with the help of microbial fuel cells is an area where these two goals can be combined. Microbial fuel cells, in which microorganisms catalyze the oxidation of organic substances, represent a new and promising alternative for electricity generation. The creation of an efficient cathode in such systems is the important problem. It is evident that in these applications an oxygen (air) electrode is a promising cathode.

The wastewater is potential processing facilities, from which you can receive bioenergy and biochemicals. Recovery of energy and valuable products can partially compensate for the cost of wastewater treatment and reduce some of the dependence on fossil fuels

The wastewater is potential processing facilities, from which you can receive bioenergy and biochemicals. Wastewater treatment using microbial fuel cells (MFC) is one of the strategies of biological treatment of industrial and agricultural wastewater.

The main idea of the book is that, depending on the addressed problem, different approaches are to be used; macro constructs are to be worked with in some cases, micro and nano in others. Biosensors considered are electrochemical, optical, atomic force microscopy-based; biofuel cells that develop the idea of electrochemical biosensors are intended for a double purpose of cleaning up the environment and working out electrical energy.
