Abstract
With the pass of time, new alternatives for the production of energy have emerged, one of them is the microbial fuel cell, through which the residual energy of microorganisms is harvested. However, this method presents deficiencies in its application due to the rapid use of the substrate by microbes to generate electrical energy. This paper proposes the implementation of plant microbial fuel cells, which add microorganisms to the energy generation system, and through the photosynthesis process, promote a beneficial interaction for the substrate, allowing it to conserve its properties, necessary for the production of energy. To store the electricity harvested from the plant microbial fuel cell, it is necessary to know the behavior of the voltage produced, to develop the most efficient method of energy harvesting by designing a smaller, less intrusive device and giving the possibility for a less invasive prototype for the plant.
