A pilot microbial fuel cell (MFC) implementing MICROrganic Technology’s VIVATM MFC was installed and operated at a brewery currently utilizing a membrane bioreactor for secondary treatment and filtration. Despite a low alkalinity waste stream, VIVA MFC maintained a neutral pH under anoxic conditions and high organic loading, while treating effluent to discharge quality. A kinetics analysis suggested BOD reduction rates consistent with traditional secondary treatment, under conditions that would normally cause failure. Implications for reactor sizing are discussed, as well as upcoming implementations of larger systems.
