Urine in Bioelectrochemical Systems: An Overall Review
ChemElectroChem, 2020 AbstractIn recent years, human urine has been successfully used as an electrolyte and organic substrate in bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) mainly due of its unique properties. Urine contains organic compounds that can be utilised as a fuel for energy recovery in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and it has high nutrient concentrations including nitrogen ...

Anaerobes in Bioelectrochemical Systems
, 2015 In bioelectrochemical systems (BES), the catalytic activity of anaerobic microorganisms generates electrons at the anode which can be used, for example, for the production of electricity or chemical compounds. BES can be used for various purposes, including wastewater treatment, production of electricity, fuels and chemicals, biosensors, bioremediation,

Bioelectrochemical system-mediated waste valorization [PDF]
Systems Microbiology and Biomanufacturing, 2021 AbstractBioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are a new and emerging technology in the field of fermentation technology. Electrical energy was provided externally to the microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) to generate hydrogen or value-added chemicals, including caustic, formic acid, acetic acid, and peroxide.

Bioelectrochemical Systems for Clean Environment [PDF]
Journal of Biosensors & Bioelectronics, 2016 The aim of this work is to introduce bacteria into the matrix of natural phosphate to catalyze the phenol oxidation. The results showed that the NP-bacteria-CPE exhibited excellent electro catalytic activity to phenol. The appearance of three peaks of oxidation shows that the degradation of the phenol was total.
