- Anthraquinone-2-sulfonate was covalently grafted on conductive polypyrrole hydrogel.
- CPH/AQS enhanced biofilm formation.
- CPH/AQS reduced charge transfer resistance.
- CPH/AQS increased power density in MFC.
In this study, anthraquinone-2-sulfonate (AQS), a redox mediator, was covalently bound to conductive polypyrrole hydrogel (CPH) via electrochemical reduction of the in-situ-generated AQS diazonium salts. The porous structure and hydrophilic surface of this CPH/AQS anode enhanced biofilm formation while the AQS bound on the CPH/AQS anode worked as a redox mediator. The CPH/AQS bioanode reduced the charge transfer resistance from 28.3 Ω to 4.1 Ω while increased the maximum power density from 762 ± 37 mW/m2 to 1919 ± 69 mW/m2, compared with the bare anode. These results demonstrated that the facile synthesis of the CPH/AQS anode provided an efficient route to enhance the power production of microbial fuel cell (MFC).
