Microbial fuel cell is type of biological fuel cells or bio-fuel cells. Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) is a bio-electrochemical system that produces electric current by using bacteria. Microbial fuel cell is a device that converts chemical energy to electrical energy by the action of microorganisms. These electrochemical cells are constructed using either a bioanode or a biocathode. Microbial fuel cell contains a membrane containing non-conductive lipids, peptidoglycans and lipopolysaccharides to separate the compartments of the anode and the cathode. The electrons produced are transferred directly to an electrode or to redox mediator species. Electrochemically active bacteria (EAB) are responsible for transfer electrons from the inside of the cell to an electrode. Microbial fuel cell (MFC) uses a wide range of fuel as well as any kind of organic and inorganic material for generation of electricity.

Key driver of the global microbial fuel cell market is increasing demand for energy and rising awareness about the environment. In addition, government initiative, rising population, no harmful by-products are the factors anticipated to propel growth of the global microbial fuel cell market. However high technical requirements, higher cost may hinder the growth of the global microbial fuel cell market.

Governments in many countries are providing support at various levels like research & development, demonstration and deployment of microbial fuel cell systems at research laboratories and industries. Key players are focusing on reactor design, membrane selection, electrode development, isolation of exoelectrogens, and system optimization to improve power generation capacity of microbial fuel cell device.

The market in North America is expected to dominate market of the global microbial fuel cell market, owing to significant investments in R&D activities by governments and other agencies of countries in order to develop MFC offer lucrative opportunities to the microbial fuel cell market. The market in Asia Pacific is expected to be an emerging market for microbial fuel cell, due to increasing demand in countries such as India, China, and Japan for household renewable power generation.
