Metal–Organic Framework-Based Nanomaterials in Bioenergy Production Pathways

Le résumé fourni par la source

The worldwide research on bioenergy has witnessed a tremendous surge in recent years due to the growing demand for sustainable energy sources. However, a major challenge in the development and commercialization of bioenergy systems lies in their relatively low efficiency and the fragility of microbial systems. To overcome these difficulties, metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) could be an attractive alternative as they have emerged as promising materials for enhancing the efficiency of bioenergy production, especially within microbial fuel cells (MFCs). Their tunable properties, like porosity, high surface area, and catalytic activity, make them an excellent alternative in the production of bioenergy through MFCs. Furthermore, integrating carbon-based materials such as graphene, reduced graphene oxide, and carbon nanotubes can significantly improve the stability of MOF systems, making them versatile in different conditions. This chapter explores the role of MOFs in advancing bioenergy (bioelectricity) production by optimizing the transformation of biomass waste into bioenergy. By leveraging the unique properties of MOFs, the transition to more sustainable and efficient bioenergy technologies becomes more feasible, thereby offering a viable pathway for harnessing renewable energy resources.
