Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) seems to be progressing at an amazing speed in the past few years, with higher power density but lower cost being continuously achieved and have created a promising future for us. Thus bioelectricity production technology using microbes can act very well as a sustainable renewable source of energy. Till now, a large number of microbes and a variety of substrates (including waste) have been used to produce electricity. In our study we have identified the documents showing bioelectricity production using bacteria (more preferably Geobacter spp.), where the power output of more than 25W (upto 300 W) is produced using microbial fuel cells.........

Citations represent added value from the patent office which we can use to help formulate better patent searches. Importantly, citations provide a language-independent search tool. This is of increasing importance in our global economy where applications are published around the world in many different languages. Links between cited references are now available in many databases free and fee-based and those links between patents related by subject can be exploited in a search to improve both relevance and recall. Cited references can provide access to older documents, which cannot be keyword searched or where terminology has changed. .... Read More
