Abstract

The structure of Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) reactor was analyzed and improved by Reverse Engineering (RE) and Rapid Prototyping (RP) technology. Points cloud data of MFC reactor was accessed by hand-held laser scanner. The space surface and entity model were reconstructed accurately, and the structure of the reactor was optimized based on Imageware and Solidworks software. The reactor model was manufactured by RP machine. The optimization efficiency of MFC reactor was improved based on the combination of RE and RP, which has a good reference value for the development of MFC technology and products.
