Abstract

Microbial reverse-electrodialysis electrolysis cell (MREC) as a novel type of microbial electrochemical technologies has been proposed to produce H₂ and CH₄. In this study, we developed MREC to produce the strong oxidant H₂O₂. In the MREC, electrical potential generated by the exoelectrogens and the salinity-gradient between sea water and river water were utilized to drive the high-rate H₂O₂ production without external power supply. Operational parameters such as air flow rate, pH, cathodic potential, flow rate of high and low concentration solution were investigated. The optimal H₂O₂ production were observed at high and low concentration solution flow rate of 0.5 mL/min, air flow rate of 8-20 mL/min, cathode potential of -0.485 ± 0.025 V (vs Ag/AgCl). Under the optimal conditions, the maximum H₂O₂ yield of 778 ± 11 mg/L could be obtained. Cathode potential was found as the key factor for H2O2 production, which can be controlled through adjusting the air flow rate without power supply and potentiostat. This study shows for the first time high yield synthesis of H₂O₂ from oxygen reduction in a microbial electrochemical system without external power supply.
