To improve the power generation of microbial fuel cell (MFC), the cathode is modified to increase its oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity by using a Cu, N-incorporated carbon-based material as catalyst, which obtained from pyrolyzing ORR active Cu (II)-based metal organic framework (MOF; Cu-bipy-BTC, bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine, BTC = 1,3,5-tricarboxylate). MOF-800 (the product of pyrolyzing Cu-bipy-BTC at 800 °C) shows porous structure with micropores ranging from 0.5 to 1.3 nm and mesopores ranging from 27 to 46 nm. It also exhibits improved ORR electrocatalytic activity with a higher current density of −3.06 mA cm−2 compared to Cu-bipy-BTC. Moreover, the charge transfer resistance of MOF-800 cathode (1.38 Ω) is much smaller than that of Cu-bipy-BTC cathode (176.8 Ω). A maximum power density of 326 ± 11 mW m−2 is achieved by MOF-800-MFC, which is 2.6 times of that of Cu-bipy-BTC-MFC and comparable with Pt/C-MFC (402 ± 17 mW m−2). The results imply the enhancements of ORR catalytic activity and electrical conductivity of MOF-800 are due to the enhanced porous structure and abundant active sites (C–N, Cu–Nχ), which result in the improved power generation of MFC. This study provides technical and theoretical validation for the MFC performance improvement by ORR active MOF-derived catalysts modified cathodes.

一种新型的金属有机骨架衍生的碳基催化剂,用于微生物燃料电池中的氧还原反应

为了提高微生物燃料电池(MFC)的发电效率,通过使用一种由N,Cu结合的碳基材料作为催化剂来对阴极进行改性,以提高其氧还原反应(ORR)活性,该材料是通过热解ORR活性Cu( II)-基金属有机骨架(MOF; Cu-bipy-BTC,bipy = 2,2'-联吡啶,BTC = 1,3,5-三羧酸盐)。MOF-800(在800°C下热解Cu-bipy-BTC的产物)显​​示出多孔结构,其微孔范围为0.5至1.3 nm,中孔范围为27至46 nm。与Cu-bipy-BTC相比,它还表现出改进的ORR电催化活性,且电流密度为-3.06 mA cm -2。此外,MOF-800阴极的电荷转移电阻(1.38Ω)比Cu-bipy-BTC阴极的电荷转移电阻(176.8Ω)小得多。最大功率密度为326±11 mW m通过MOF-800-MFC达到了-2,这是Cu-bipy-BTC-MFC的2.6倍,可与Pt / C-MFC(402±17 mW m -2)相提并论。结果表明,MOF-800的ORR催化活性和电导率的提高归因于多孔结构的增强和丰富的活性位点(C–N,Cu– ),从而改善了MFC的发电能力。这项研究为通过ORR活性MOF衍生的催化剂修饰的阴极改善MFC性能提供了技术和理论验证。
