A photoelectrochemical biofuel cell (PEBFC) generating electrical energy directly from sunlight and biomass was investigated. In this paper, the PEBFC had a natural chlorophyll-sensitized titanium dioxide (TiO2) film photoanode and Pt black cathode. The electron transport process of the PEBFC was described. The performances of the PEBFC were obtained by photocurrent-photovoltage characteristic curves. The open-circuit photovoltage (Voc), the short-circuit photocurrent (Isc) and the maximum power density (Pmax) is 0.53V, 1.000 μAcm-2 and1.1520 μWcm-2 at 0.37 V, respectively. The incident photo-to-current efficiency (IPCE) is 8.4% at 380 nm.

In this paper,the PEBFC had a triarylamine dye-sensitized titanium dioxide(TiO2) film photoanode and Pt black cathode. The electron transport process of the PEBFC was also described. The performances of the PEBFC were obtained by photocurrent–photovoltage characteristic curves.The open-circuit photovoltage(Voc), the short-circuit photocurrent (Isc) and the maximum power density (Pmax) was 0.82V, 69.00 μAcm-2 and14.00μWcm-2 at 0.27 V, respectively. The fill factor (FF) was 0.25 and the incident photo-to-current efficiency (IPCE) was 3.5% at 441 nm.

Photoelectrochemical Biofuel Cell

Magnesium tetraphenylporphyrin (MgTPP) had been synthesized with tetraphenylporphyrin (TPP) and magnesium acetate according to reported paper. The photoanode of photoelectrochemical biofuel cell (PEBFC) was constructed including TiO2 conductive film and photosensitizer Magnesium Tetraphenylporphyrin. The interaction between MgTPP sensitizer and TiO2 was evaluated by X-ray photoelectron spectra, indicating that the MgTPP adsorbed on TiO2 was easier to accept electrons compared with synthesized MgTPP itself. The spectroscopic properties of synthesized MgTPP and MgTPP-sensitization TiO2 in dichloromethane solution were obtained by Uv-vis absorption spectra, demonstrating that the characteristic absorption peaks of MgTPP on TiO2 displayed slight red shift compared with synthesized MgTPP. The photocurrent action spectrum evidenced that current of the PEBFC originated from MgTPP-sensitization TiO2 photoanode.
