Abstract Chlorella was used as the cathode of the double-chamber photosynthetic algae microbial fuel cell (PAMFC) to provide electron acceptors, and thus to achieve the goal of sewage treatment and energy recovery. The effects of biocathode inoculation methods and light conditions on the bioelectricity generation performance and the treatment effect of kitchen biogas slurry wastewater were studied, and the polarization and electricity generation mechanism of PAMFC electrode was studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV) method. The results showed that the microalgae biofilm cathode PAMFC had better pollutant removal and power generation performance than the control group, with COD, TN and TP removal ratio up to 82.4%, 54.5% and 82.3%, and open circuit voltage and maximum power density up to 603.0mV and 41.5mW/m². While the pollutant removal mainly occurred at the anode, the cathode reduced and removed the ammonium ions from the anode, and the cathode reaction generated oxygen as the electron acceptor of the anode, which increased the system current and improved the anode treatment efficiency. Under continuous light condition, PAMFC's power generation performance and pollutant removal rate were slightly higher than that under intermittent light condition, but intermittent light avoided cathode light saturation and oxygen saturation when the anode substrate was insufficient, which was more in line with continuous operation requirements. The cyclic voltammetry curve of the PAMFC cathode showed that the experimental group with the microalgae cathode had higher output voltage, higher reduction peak, and stronger power density, but attention must be paid to that the thickening of the microalgae biofilm affected the oxygen mass transfer efficiency in long-term operation.
