Abstract
⺠Electricity was produced from acidic food waste leachate using microbial fuel cells (MFCs). ⺠Domestic wastewater, activated sludge and anaerobic sludge were compared as MFC co-inoculum. ⺠Anaerobic sludge was the best due to the enrichment of fermentative/electrogenic bacteria. ⺠Food waste leachate alone could already serve as a MFC inoculum for bioelectricity production.
