摘要：In this study, a new approach to improving the performance of a Chlorella vulgaris-based microbial solar cell (MSC) by using a riboflavinyl-salicylaldehyde-4-aminosalicylic-1-tetracarboxylate ester (RSA) modified carbon rod anode was reported. It has strong hydrophilicity but can be easily soluble in organic solvents rather than water and can be attached to the surface of a plain carbon rod without using any carrier. The single-chamber MSC operated with this RSA modified anode and a cupric hexacyanoferrate modified cathode achieved a maximum power density of 0.847 W/m(2), which was 7 times higher than that obtained from the MSC equipped with an unmodified anode. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) results indicated that there was no biofilm formed on the anode surface. Charge transfer was facilitated only by RSA modification.
