The invention discloses a
microbial fuel cell with a photocatalytic material loaded on a positive
electrode and a preparation method and application of the
microbial fuel cell, and belongs to the technical field of
environment water pollution treatment and
energy recovery. The photocatalytic material is loaded on the positive
electrode of the
microbial fuel cell, a negative
electrode is an air electrode; and a
resistor is connected between the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The preparation method comprises the following steps: dissolving the photocatalytic material,
coating onthe surface of a carbon electrode, heating to obtain the carbon electrode loaded with the photocatalytic material, taking the carbon electrode as the positive electrode and the air electrode as the negative electrode, connecting the
resistor between the positive electrode and the negative electrode; connecting the positive electrode, the negative electrode and the
resistor in series, putting in areactor, and forming the microbial fuel
cell with the photocatalytic material loaded on the positive electrode. The microbial fuel
cell with the photocatalytic material loaded on the positive electrode can rapidly thoroughly degrade the organic matters like chlorophenols, and the
electricity generation performance of the fuel
cell is improved.
