Problems solved by technology

Since the efficiency of oxygen reduction at the cathode directly affects the power generation of the entire MFC, the improvement of the cathode oxygen reduction catalyst and the increase in the surface area are conducive to the effective progress of the oxygen reduction process. At present, platinum (Pt) is commonly used as the cathode oxygen reduction catalyst. , although the ideal performance has been obtained, but its source is not wide, the price is expensive,
[0004] and complex process seriously restrict the development and application of MFC

Abstract

The invention discloses a cathode catalyst of a microbial fuel cell, a cathode, a microbial fuel cell, a preparation method of the cathode catalyst of the microbial fuel cell, and a preparation method of the microbial fuel cell. The cathode catalyst is a composite material of spinel cobalt manganate, or a carbon nano tube loaded spinel cobalt manganate, and has excellent oxygen catalytic reduction performance. On the premise of ensuring the energy output efficiency of the microbial fuel cell, because raw materials are wide in sources, low in cost and strong in stability, the production cost of the cathode and the microbial fuel cell can be greatly reduced, and the popularization and application of the microbial fuel cell are facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of microbial fuel cells, in particular to a cathode catalyst for a microbial fuel cell, a cathode, a microbial fuel cell, a preparation method for a cathode catalyst for a microbial fuel cell, and a preparation method for a microbial fuel cell. Background technique [0002] With the increasingly severe problems such as the depletion of fossil fuels, the research on alternative energy and renewable energy has received more and more attention. In recent years, Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC), a power generation device that can directly convert chemical energy into electrical energy, has gradually become a research hotspot in the field of emerging energy due to its unique advantages. From the point of view of the electricity generation mechanism of MFC, although the anode is the carrier for the attachment of electrogenic microorganisms, it has an important impact on the electricity generation performance of MFC due to its infl...
