I have recently been reading about microbial fuel cells (MFC's), a really interesting concept that can use microbial activity to degrade many types of substrate such as waste water, sewage sludge etc ad in the process produce electricity.
Although this technology is in its early stages, many of the reports seemed fairly confident that within the next ten years these MFC's can be used to replace some battery applications, or provide small scale plant works with electricity.
I wonder if these systems could be adapted to work from food waste?
