Abstract The high consumption of electricity and issues related to fossil energy have triggered an increase in energy prices and the scarcity of fossil resources. Consequently, many researchers are seeking alternative energy sources. One potential technology, the Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) based on rice, vegetable, and fruit wastes, can convert chemical energy into electrical energy. This study aims to determine the potency of rice, vegetable, and fruit waste assisted by Cu/Mg electrodes as a generator of electricity. The method used was a laboratory experiment, including the following steps: electrode preparation, waste sample preparation, incubation of the… More >
