Nanoscale, 7(16), 7022-7029. doi: 10.1039/C4NR05637J2040-3364http://hdl.handle.net/10919/51735Graphene is an emerging material with superior physical and chemical properties, which can benefit the development of microbial fuel cells (MFC) in several aspects. Graphene-based anodes can enhance MFC performance with increased electron transfer efficiency, higher specific surface area and more active microbe-electrode-electrolyte interaction. For cathodic processes, oxygen reduction reaction is effectively catalyzed by graphene-based materials because of a favorable pathway and an increase in active sites and conductivity. Despite challenges, such as complexity in synthesis and property degeneration, graphene-based electrodes will be promising for developing MFCs and other bioelectrochemical systems to achieve sustainable water/wastewater treatment and bioenergy production.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 3.0 UnportedWastewater treatmentGrapheneMicrobial fuel cellsEnvironmental engineeringArticle - Refereedhttp://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2015/nr/c4nr05637jhttps://doi.org/10.1039/C4NR05637J
