Abstract : In this chapter, fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites prepared from the drumstick fruit (DF) fiber were used as the proton exchange membrane (PEM) in single-chambered microbial fuel cells (MFCs). These PEMs have been used as alternative to expensive PEM-like Nafion membranes. The MFCs designed with FRP-PEM were used to treat gray water (GW) and cashew industry effluent (CIE). All the MFCs were arranged in a stack form. The performance of MFC units with FRP-PEM was also compared with MFC with Nafion as PEM while treating gray water.
