Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Soak liquor is a primary effluent from tannery industry. It poses a threat to the environment and it is necessary to treat the effluent. The predominant tannery effluent bacteria were isolated, identified and used for the electricity generation. The present study investigates the use of soak liquor for the first time as a substrate for electricity generation in Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC). The high salinity and rich organic content of soak liquor increase the efficiency of MFC. Various electrochemical characterizations such as polarization curve, cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, electrochemical impedance spectrometry were performed to analyse the efficacy of the soak liquor. MFC produced a maximum power density ( P max ) of 44.02 mW/m 2 with a current density 140.34 mA/m 2. The chemical oxygen demand (COD) reduction rate was found to be 93% ± 4.7% in a cycle period of 168 h. The presence of humic acid was identified in soak liquor, which might be involved in shuttling of electrons from the microorganisms to the electrode.
