| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, sediment microbial fuel cells (SMFCs) were focused as the hypoxia control method in closed bay by enhancing transfer function of electron in bottom sediment. As the experimental results, it is showed that 95% of electric generation of SMFCs came from the metabolism of the microorganisms and 5% of that came from an inorganic matter in bottom sediment. SMFCs were operated for 90days with turn-on or turn-off the electricity line, oxygen utilization rate of sediment was decreased 24% in turn-on condition compared with turn-off condition. Additionally, as the ORP value is extremely high in turn-on condition compared with turn-off condition, it is clearly showed that anaerobic condition in bottom sediment can be improved by introduction of SMFCs. And it is showed the possibility that the purification area in bottom sediment can be expanded by mixing/spreading of an appropriate amount of magnetite. As stated above, the main objective of this study was accomplished.
