The microbial fuel cell market size is forecast to increase by USD 6,121.1 at a CAGR of 7.9% between 2023 and 2028. The market is experiencing significant growth due to several key drivers. The increasing demand for wastewater treatment is a major factor, as MFCs offer an efficient and environmentally friendly solution for organic matter disposal through the anaerobic oxidation process. Additionally, the higher demand for mediator-free MFCs is driving market growth, as these cells do not require external mediators for the oxidation process, making them more cost-effective and sustainable. Furthermore, the increasing adoption of renewable energy sources is boosting the MFC market, as these cells can generate electricity directly from organic matter using bacteria as the catalyst. The power density of MFCs continues to improve, making them a viable alternative to traditional power generation methods. Key substrates for MFCs include industrial wastewater, agricultural waste, and landfill leachate. The anode and cathode are separated by an exchange membrane, allowing the transfer of electrons while preventing the mixing of the anode and cathode solutions. Overall, the MFC market is poised for continued growth due to its ability to address multiple industries' needs for sustainable energy and wastewater treatment solutions.
