Description
Machines that I built for science experiments. I entered these machines into science fairs and won every single one.
A Microbial Fuel Cell, this is a device that generates electricity using decomposing organic waste. It works by using the electrochemical reactions of the decomposing waste to discharge electrons. Bacteria with electrochemically active redox proteins such as cytochromes on their outer membrane transfer electrons directly to an electron donor called the anode which discharges the excess electrons to an electron acceptor called the cathode, generating a flow of electricity.
