Summary: Developing and utilizing clean and renewable energy is crucial in addressing energy crisis and environmental issues. Microbial fuel cells (MFCs), as a type of biomass energy utilization, suffer from low power generation efficiency due to slow electronic transfer kinetics. It is important to develop efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts to improve the performance of fuel cells. However, current catalysts are unstable under acidic conditions. Therefore, the development of a pH universal ORR catalyst is of great significance. In this study, a metal-free and efficient pH universal ORR catalyst was fabricated and demonstrated excellent performance in experiments.
