We can start to appreciate how much energy we use in our daily lives using the energy unit D. See the new "Energy Unit D" website at sites.psu.edu/energyunitd/. Also contains information on carbon emissions C
Connecting energy unit D to carbon emission unit C- see my last editorial in ES&T Letters: C, You, and Farewell. pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021…
Energy Literacy, the Daily Energy Unit, now on my YouTube page on MFCs. youtube.com/watch?v=PU1cimph…
The food you eat=1D. Energy for your home = 13 D. A solar panel in State College PA=0.43 D. How much "D" in a gallon of gas?

Check out my new editorial on an easy way to present how much energy we use: the daily energy unit "D"! pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…
MFC site just updated again with some more photos, as well as links to the main papers where you can find out more about each of these reactors.
I am overhauling my websites. Some photos and links are not yet working, but many new photos on the MFC site now at sites.psu.edu/microbialfuelc…
Also see "Logan, Rossi, Ragab, Saikaly. "Electroactive microorganisms and bioelectroecology of bioelectrochemical systems", in Nature Rev. Microbiol. which is an update of the 2019 review in the same journal.
Really excited about our new paper! Rossi et al. "Evaluation of electrode and solution area-based resistances enables quantitative comparisons of factors impacting microbial fuel cell performance." ES&T 53,7,3977. Now we can really compare MFC components!

Read about how many MFC publications there are and where they got published, article by Khudzari et al. doi.org/10.1016/j.bej.2018.0…
