    This study investigated the dynamics of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions during the composting of organic waste. Cow dung and food waste were mixed in different ratios and composted for 60 days. The mixture containing 25% cow dung and 75% food waste had the lowest emissions, which were within the EPA's recommended range.

    Authorship:Corresponding author   Language:Japanese   Publishing type:Research paper (other academic)  

    In this study, we investigated the effect of cathode water exchange on improving the power generation performance of microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Continuous water exchange increased internal resistance and decreased performance, whereas water exchange every seven days maintained cathode potential and achieved optimal power generation efficiency.

  • Effect of cathode chamber-water exchange on power generation performance of steelmaking slag-sediment microbial fuel cell using food waste as fuel Reviewed

    Proceedings of the Annual Conference of Japan Society of Material Cycles and Waste Management   35 ( 0 )   255 - 256   2024.09

    Authorship:Lead author   Language:Japanese   Publishing type:Research paper (conference, symposium, etc.)   Publisher:Japan Society of Material Cycles and Waste Management  

    In our previously developed single-layer steelmaking slag-sediment microbial fuel cell (SS-SMFC) that uses food waste as fuel, food waste particles and substances generated from organic matter decomposition are moved from the anode chamber to the cathode chamber. These significantly decreased the current density of the SS-SMFC 7 days after electricity generation. In this study, the structure of the SS-SMFC was changed from a single-layer type to a two-layer type, and the cathode chamber water was overflowed (exchanged). We investigated the change in power generation performance of SS-SMFC due to the exchange of cathode chamber water and examined the water quality of the cathode chamber water. The experimental results revealed that although the cathode potential was maintained above 0 mV by exchanging the cathode chamber water, the amount of power generated during the first 4 days was lower than that without water exchange. In other words, there is no need for continuous water exchange, and a large amount of electricity can be recovered by exchanging water every four days. It was also found that the cathode chamber water contains a large amount of nitrogen and has a high possibility of being used as liquid fertilizer.
