Composite anodes made of activated carbon powder/nano Fe₃O₄/stainless steel mesh(SSM) were fabricated with a mass percentage of 0,2.5%,5.0% and 7.5% of nano Fe₃O₄,and named as AcM,AcFeM1,AcFeM2 and AcFeM3,respectively. The SSM was used as both matrix and current collector. Effect of the nano Fe₃O₄ content on the performance of SSM was investigated in single-chamber membrane-less air cathode microbial fuel cell(MFC). The electrochemical behavior of each anode was studied by Tafel tests and charge-discharge experiments. The results indicate that the maximum power density and net capacitance charge increase from 664 mW/m² and 293.9 C(AcM) to 731 mW/m² and 300.4 C(AcFeM1),809 mW/m² and 388.5 C(AcFeM2),where nano Fe₃O₄ content is increased from 0 to 2.5% and 5.0%,respectively. With further increase in content of nano Fe₃O₄ to 7.5%,the performance of MFC inversely decreases. Thus,when the content of nano Fe₃O₄ is 5.0%,the best performance is reached for MFC. The electrochemical measurement also displays that the kinetic activity is the highest for AcFem2 anode with nano Fe₃O₄ content of 5.0%.
