▎ 摘 要
A novel core-shell structured multiwall carbon nanotube-graphene oxide nanoribbon (MWCNT@GONR) and a nitrogen-doped MWCNT@GONR (N-MWCNT@GONR) were synthesized through a microwave energy-assisted unzipping process and utilized as anodes forEscherichia coli-based microbial fuel cells (MFCs) for the first time. To evaluate the electrochemical performance of the MFCs, we measured the electrochemical activity and charge transfer in MFCs with MWCNT, N-MWCNT@GONR, and MWCNT@GONR anodes. Compared to the MFC with the MWCNT anode (970 mW m(-2)), the MFCs with the N-MWCNT@GONR and MWCNT@GONR anodes exhibit higher power densities of up to 3444 and 3291 mW m(-2), respectively. Both the oxygen and nitrogen functional groups on the MWCNT@GONR and N-MWCNT@GONR contribute to good biocompatibility, which greatly enhances the charge transfer efficiency and biofilm formation on the anode surface. Our results suggest that MWCNT@GONR and N-MWCNT@GONR are outstanding and promising anode materials for MFCs.
