In this work, novel catalysts derived from iron and benzimidazole and aminobenzimidazole were synthesized using Sacrificial Support Method (SSM). The catalysts obtained were then tested in rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE) technique and compared with AC. Fe-based catalysts had performances much higher compared to AC and therefore are suitable for microbial fuel cell (MFC) applications. Future works will integrate the catalysts into air-breathing cathodes and test them in MFCs.

Abstract
In this work, novel catalysts derived from iron and benzimidazole and aminobenzimidazole were synthesized using Sacrificial Support Method (SSM). The catalysts obtained were then tested in rotating ring disk electrode (RRDE) technique and compared with AC. Fe-based catalysts had performances much higher compared to AC and therefore are suitable for microbial fuel cell (MFC) applications. Future works will integrate the catalysts into air-breathing cathodes and test them in MFCs.
