To investigate the removal effect of pollutants in mariculture sediment by sediment microbial fuel cell (SMFC) and its power generation capacity, the effects of external resistance, cathode pH and cathode dissolved oxygen concentration (DO) on the SMFC system were investigated. The results showed that the optimal parameters for SMFC were as follows: external resistance = 1500 Ω, pH = 8.5 and DO = 5 mg·L-1. In these situations, the power generation performance and organic degradation effect were both the best. The maximum output voltages were 585, 606, and 587 mV, respectively; the removal rates of COD in sediment were 75.51%, 84.21% and 86.63%, respectively; and the removal rates of ammonia nitrogen in sediment were 80.34%, 98.91% and 90.24%, respectively. The SMFC system had a certain degradation ability to pollutants such as COD and ammonia nitrogen in the sediment of the marine aquaculture areas, which had a broad application prospect.

The effects of pH, chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration and external resistance on denitrifying microbial fuel cell were evaluated in terms of electricity generation characteristics and pollutant removal performance. The results showed that anodic influent with weakly alkaline or neutral pH and cathodic influent with weakly acidic pH favored pollutant removal and electricity generation. The suitable influent pH of the anode and cathode were found to be 7.5–8.0 and 6.0–6.5, respectively. In the presence of sufficient nitrate in the cathode, higher influent COD concentration led to more electricity generation and greater pollutant removal rates. With an anodic influent pH of 8.0 and a cathodic influent pH of 6.0, an influent COD concentration of 400 mg/L was deemed to be appropriate. Low external resistance favored nitrate and COD removal. The results suggest that operation of denitrifying microbial fuel cell at a lower external resistance would be desirable for pollutant removal but not electricity generation.
