The study was conducted to determine the potential of electrical energy generated from the treatment of eceng gondok waste (Eichhornia crassipes) with variations in the addition of buffer solutions and combinations of electrolyte solutions using the microorganism Saccharomyces cerevisiae through Microbial Fuel Cell technology.

Measurement of the value of the maximum voltage, maximum current and power density is carried out every 3 hours for 27 hours for each treatment.
