The Microbial H-Cell is a Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) reactor chamber. The H-cell is defined according to the shape of the cell. It can be used as reactor and other electrochemical cells.

The assembled H-cell has a volume of 100ml on each side of chamber. The compact design of the H-cell is especially suitable for proof of concept studies in getting initial results efficiently. It is suitable for using various substrates, such as basal medium, M9 medium, other bacteria growth medium, waste water or organic liquid from nature, natural sea water etc. The two chambers are connected in the middle with a big aperture hole, which has the advantage of less mass transport limitation in ion-exchange. Each chamber has multiple (3) openings to provide flexibility in doing multiple tasks at the same time, such as adding circulation pipes, culture injection and gas purging during the testing.
