Abstract

Indonesia's rapid population growth means that power demand will continue to rise year after year.
Indonesia's growing population has resulted in an increase in restaurants, including Chinese food
restaurants. As the number of restaurants grows, so does the amount of waste produced. Microbial
Fuel Cells (MFC) that create electrical energy are one solution to this challenge. The study aimed to
explore the utilization of MFC systems for power generation. It measured the performance of MFC
in liquid waste in generating electrical value by utilizing a series of electrode types, particularly
Aluminium (Al), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn), and Lead (Pb), and a blend of the four types of electrodes.
The measured electrical value indicated that MFC can produce the high electrical voltage value was
the pair of zinc (anode) and copper (cathode) of (0.863 V) and then the highest electric current
value is 0.14 mA with electrode Cu and Zn. The maximum power density is 0.00464 W/m2 using a
combination of Zn/Cu electrodes and then electrical energy with the highest value is 0.75168 J with
Zn/Cu.
