A comprehensive investigation, published in the Journal of Environmental Management in December 2024, illustrated the evolutionary trend and development status of constructed wetland coupled with microbial fuel cells. The paper discussed constructed wetland as an engineered ecosystem designed to replicate natural wetlands, utilising aquatic plants and microorganisms to filter contaminants from wastewater. By incorporating a microbial fuel cell into this system, the technology enhanced wastewater treatment while simultaneously generating clean energy.
