Effect of heat pretreatment of anodic inoculum in microbial fuel cell for enhanced methyl orange dye degradation and electricity generation
Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) have gained remarkable attention for effectively decolorizing Methyl orange (MO) dye—a synthetic azo dye with a significant environment concern, while generating green electricity. However, the efficiency of MFCs, both in terms of treatment and power generation, is limited by substrate loss due to methanogenesis in the microbial consortium present in the anaerobic inoculum. The present study designed to evaluate the efficiency of heat pre-treatment strategy to suppress the methanogens and how effectively decolorize methyl orange dye by enhancing the exoelectrogens activity of MFC. The MFC using heat pretreated sludge (MFC-1) demonstrates a complete MO removal of 100 % within just 4 h in a single stage, achieving a maximum power generation of 134 mW/m2. The microbial profile analysis of pre-treated and untreated inoculum showed significant results with an abundance of Proteobacteria in MFC-1 whereas the Proteobacteria abundant in MFC-2 than the MFC-1. The results demonstrate heat treatment of sludge at 100 ℃ for 15 min as a promising strategy to achieve high-rate MO removal from wastewater while maintaining an enhanced power recovery. The functional traits prediction using the metagenome data reveals the presence of potential enzymes and metabolic pathways within the system of MFC.
