Problems solved by technology

However, the existing microbial fuel cells generally have the disadvantage of low electricity production; at the same time, the surface area of ​​the anode in the prior art is generally small, which is not conducive to the attachment of a large number of microorganisms, and the catalytic performance is narrow; in the prior art, platinum is mostly used as Cathodic catalyst, although the catalytic effect is good, but too expensive

Abstract

The invention discloses a VO2 / S-AC nickel foam air cathode and belongs to the field of electrodes. The preparation method of the VO2 / S-AC nickel foam air cathode includes the three steps of preparing a catalytic layer raw material, preparing nickel foam coated with a catalytic layer and preparing the VO2 / S-AC nickel foam air cathode. The VO2 / S-AC nickel foam air cathode has the advantages that the VO2 / S-AC nickel foam air cathode is larger in electrode surface activation area, the electrostatic effect between microbes and the electrode surface is improved, the microbial adsorptivity is improved, the catalytic performance is good, accordingly the power output is improved, and the production cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrode, especially a VO 2 / S-AC foam nickel air cathode. Background technique [0002] As the world's population continues to increase, human beings are increasingly affected by insufficient energy resources and environmental degradation. Therefore, the development of new energy sources has been widely valued, and the use of renewable biomass energy for power generation is an effective means. Microbial fuel cells (MFC), as a new method of using microbial metabolism to generate electricity, has attracted more and more attention in recent years. It is a device that uses microorganisms as catalysts to convert chemical energy into electrical energy. Microorganisms can metabolize organic substances and generate electrical energy at the same time. However, the existing microbial fuel cells generally have the disadvantage of low electricity production; at the same time, the surface area of ​​the anode in the prior art is gener...
