This document is an abstract for a paper presented at the 1st International Conference on Emerging Trends in Scientific Research in 2014. The paper studied a microbial fuel cell system using immobilized cells to generate electricity from wastewater. A single chamber microbial fuel cell was designed with an anode chamber and air cathode. Immobilizing electricigens in a polymeric matrix on an activated carbon support created close contact between the microbes and electrode, allowing high density electron transfer. This was expected to lower internal resistance and increase power production compared to traditional microbial fuel cells. The performance of the immobilized cell anode in the single chamber microbial fuel cell was evaluated based on open circuit voltage, closed circuit voltage, and polarization curve.
