Resumen

The called Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) is a green technology which produces electricity fromorganic matter. This system uses microorganisms to transform the chemical energy intoelectrical power. Using wastewater as source of organic matter we can generate electricitywhile treating water in order to reduce its Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) [1]. To make thistechnology feasible, new materials must be found to replace the conventional ones.
