Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) Reactor | Dual Chamber Bioelectrochemical Cell | Micro
Product Description
The Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) Reactor is a precision-engineered bioelectrochemical research system designed for advanced studies in microbial fuel cells, bioelectricity generation, wastewater treatment, environmental biotechnology, microbial electrolysis, and sustainable energy research. The reactor enables researchers to investigate the direct conversion of chemical energy stored in organic matter into electrical energy through the metabolic activity of electroactive microorganisms.
The reactor features a dual-chamber configuration, where the anodic and cathodic compartments are separated by an ion exchange membrane, allowing efficient proton transport while minimizing substrate crossover. The modular design supports a wide range of electrodes, membranes, catalysts, and microbial cultures, making it an ideal platform for academic, industrial, and environmental research.
Manufactured using high-quality transparent acrylic (PMMA) with precision CNC machining, the reactor provides excellent chemical resistance, leak-proof sealing, and clear visualization of microbial growth, electrolyte flow, and biofilm formation during experiments.
Designed for universities, IITs, IISc, NITs, IISERs, CSIR laboratories, ICAR institutes, DRDO, BARC, environmental research organizations, wastewater treatment laboratories, industrial R&D centers, and international research institutes, this reactor is widely used for bioenergy and environmental engineering research.
