Abstract:
 Microbial fuel cell (MFC) generally has a slow start-up, and the starting mode has great influence on the performance of anode and cathode. In this paper, the effect of constant potential on the starting process of the system and the performance of the biological cathode was analyzed by applying constant potential to the anode. The results showed that the application of constant potentials accelerated the startup process of the system and improved the bio-cathode performance of EAM-MFC. Cathode potential and EAM-MFC output voltage increased by 84 ± 1.51 mV and 127 ± 2.09 mV respectively; the cathode COD, ammonia nitrogen and total nitrogen removal efficiency were increased by 32.77 %, 10.09 % and 21.42 % respectively; and it can stimulate the growth of denitrifying microorganism on the cathode membrane module.
