Abstract

Engineering of environmentally friendly and renewable energy sources is one of the most important problems nowadays. Developing a simple, inexpensive, miniature energy source can significantly reduce environmental issues. In this work, we developed a model of a biofuel cell (BFC) for photogeneration of electricity based on cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) which can perform photosynthesis. As bioanalyzer of the system two types of cyanobacteria strains were used: Anabaena and Synechococcus. The development was focused on design and optimization of nanostructured anodes on which life cells were deposited. Various types of anodes based on glassy carbon, carbon paper cardboard, carbon felt were created and tested. Developed fuel cell efficiency with Synechococcus was 1.3 times higher than that with Anabaena. Maximum efficiency obtained with hybrid carbon anode and Synechococcus was 183 mW/m2. Further studies are carried out in order to increase the efficiency of the bio fuel cells.

基于蓝藻的微型生物燃料电池光能发电*

环境友好型和可再生能源工程是当今最重要的问题之一。开发一种简单、廉价的微型能源可以显著减少环境问题。在这项工作中，我们开发了一种基于蓝藻(蓝绿藻)的生物燃料电池(BFC)模型，用于光发电，蓝藻可以进行光合作用。采用两种蓝藻菌株:水蓝藻和聚藻球菌作为系统的生物分析仪。研究的重点是纳米结构阳极的设计和优化。各种类型的阳极基于玻璃碳，碳纸板，碳毡制造和测试。用聚藻球菌制备的燃料电池效率比用水藻制备的燃料电池效率高1.3倍。杂化碳阳极和聚藻球菌的最高效率为183 mW/m2。进一步的研究是为了提高生物燃料电池的效率。
