Abstract
As a current technology that can effectively remove organic carbon compounds and immobilize phosphorus in sediment, sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) can combine sediment remediation with power generation. This review discusses the removal efficiency of SMFCs on organic carbon compounds, including sediment organic matter, antibiotics, oil-contaminated sediments, methane, persistent organic pollutants, and other organic pollutants in sediment, with more comprehensive and targeted summaries, and it also emphasizes the mitigation of phosphorus pollution in water from the perspective of controlling endogenous phosphorus. In this review, the microbial community is used as a starting point to explore more about its roles on phosphorus and organic carbon compounds under SMFCs. Electrode modification, addition of exogenous substances and combinations with other technologies to improve the performance of SMFCs are also reviewed. It is further demonstrated that SMFCs have the prospect of long-term sustainability, but more attention needs to be paid to the study of the mechanism of SMFCs and the continuous improvement of devices for further application in practice.
期刊介绍:
Environmental Pollution is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality research papers and review articles covering all aspects of environmental pollution and its impacts on ecosystems and human health.
Subject areas include, but are not limited to:
• Sources and occurrences of pollutants that are clearly defined and measured in environmental compartments, food and food-related items, and human bodies;
• Interlinks between contaminant exposure and biological, ecological, and human health effects, including those of climate change;
• Contaminants of emerging concerns (including but not limited to antibiotic resistant microorganisms or genes, microplastics/nanoplastics, electronic wastes, light, and noise) and/or their biological, ecological, or human health effects;
• Laboratory and field studies on the remediation/mitigation of environmental pollution via new techniques and with clear links to biological, ecological, or human health effects;
• Modeling of pollution processes, patterns, or trends that is of clear environmental and/or human health interest;
• New techniques that measure and examine environmental occurrences, transport, behavior, and effects of pollutants within the environment or the laboratory, provided that they can be clearly used to address problems within regional or global environmental compartments.
