▎ 摘　　要

Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) has gained great interest as an alternative green technology for bioenergy generation along with reduced sludge production, nutrient recovery, removal of COD and color, etc. during wastewater treatment. However, the MFC has several challenges for real-time applications due to less power output and high ohmic resistance and fabrication (electrode and membrane) cost. Several kinds of research have been carried out to increase energy production by reducing various losses associated with electrodes in the MFC. Though, carbonaceous electrodes (carbon and graphite) are the key materials for the anode and cathode side, since these have a higher surface area, good biocompatibility, low cost, and good mechanical strength. Graphene or graphene oxide-based nanocomposite can be an ideal substitute for electrode modifications and an alternative for an expensive anode and cathode catalyst in MFC. Graphene oxide synthesis from waste material such as waste biomass, agricultural, plastic waste, etc. is added advantages of minimizing the cost of the electrodes. But, the synthesis of graphene is quite expensive and has limitations in economic feasibility for bioelectricity production in MFC. Hence, the present review deals with the anode and cathode electrode modification with graphene-based nanocomposites, synthesis of graphene/graphene oxide from various raw materials, and its application in MFC. The current challenges and future outlook on graphene-based composites on MFC performance are also discussed.
