The study was conducted from December 2017 to March 2018 to investigate the potential of a dual-chamber microbial fuel cell for bioenergy generation using active meat processing wastewater inoculated with active soil microbes. Laboratory experiments were conducted using fabricated dual-chamber microbial fuel cells with carbon fiber brushes and titanium mesh ns electrode materials. Dual-chamber MFC were fabricated and used in the experiments. Carbon fiber brushes and titanium mesh electrodes were selected as electrode materials, and the Dupont® Nafion 212 membrane was used as proton exchange membrane. Significant finding revealed that the MFCs with pure microbial inoculant in the anodic chamber can generate open circuit voltage as high as I, 136 m V using titanium mesh and 824 m V using carbon brush. Using meat processing wastewater, the open circuit potential of the MFCs were also high with a peak value of 1032 mV using carbon brushes and I 052 m V using titanium electrodes. The current profiles showed that using carbon brushes, values were highest when there is equal amount of wastewater and microbial inoculant in the anode which gave 1.38 mA. Meanwhile, with titanium mesh, current values were not significantly affected by the ratio of the constituents in the anode. In terms of power density, the MFC with titanium electrode gained higher values primarily because of the smaller surface area of the electrode in which the power density was normalized. The average power density for this setup was 1.223 W/m2 while the other MFC had was 0.3384.
