Green Energy and Environmental Technology, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 4

Published: Feb. 28, 2025

As of 2023, coal, oil, and natural gas, which are non-renewable fossil fuels, account for about 80% the world’s energy consumption. This underscores pressing necessity alternative sources in light worsening climate crisis. Apart from problems, this review evaluates potential microbial fuel cells biofuel production, contributes to just 10–20% total consumption due its relatively low environmental impact. The aim systematic is elucidate their role producing a range bio-based including biogas, biodiesel, bioethanol, biobutanol. findings categorized into ten main areas: biomass conversion techniques, substrates strains, design components cells, strain improvement through metabolic engineering, enhancements nanomaterials advantages disadvantages biofuels, integration biorefineries, applications, challenges limitations, future trends cell technology. also promise as sustainable eco-friendly option bioenergy emphasizing need advancements efficiency compete with conventional fuels. Harnessing innovative strategies pertaining technology (MFCs) can potentially transform generation more commercially viable practice, positively impacting conservation public health.
