Efektivitas Microalgal Fuel Cell Spirulina sp. sebagai Sumber Energi Listrik
Abstract
Pasokan energi stabil dan kontinyu menjadi kebutuhan primer kehidupan di bumi. Namun pada
kenyataannya, saat ini keberadaan sumber energi terbatas, sehingga diperlukan adanya sumber
energi terbarukan untuk memenuhi pasokan energi tersebut. Salah satu yang potensial untuk
menjadi sumber energi ialah Spirulina sp. Spirulina sp. merupakan mikroalga yang potensial untuk
menjadi sumber energi listrik dalam pengaplikasiannya sebagai anolit pada microalgal fuel cell.
Tujuan dari penelitian ini untuk mengetahui efektivitas microalgal fuel cell Spirulina sp. sebagai
sumber energi listrik. Konstruksi microalgal fuel cell mengadaptasi dari microbial fuel cell (MFC) di
mana digunakan untuk mengukur nilai tegangan yang dihasilkan. Microalgal fuel cell menggunakan
variasi volume anolit berupa kultur Spirulina sp. dan volume katolit berupa nutrisi Spirulina sp.
Adapun hasil yang diperoleh berupa efektivitas tegangan tertinggi menggunakan perbandingan
anolit sebanyak 100 ml dan katolit sebanyak 500 ml. Berdasarkan data hasil penelitian, mikroalga
Spirulina sp. terbukti efektif sebagai sumber energi terbarukan dalam menghasilkan energi listrik.
