New applications and performance of bioelectrochemical systems [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2009
Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are emerging technologies which use microorganisms to catalyze the reactions at the anode and/or cathode. BES research is advancing rapidly, and a whole range of applications using different electron donors and acceptors has already been developed. In this mini review, we focus on technological aspects of the expanding

Leveraging artificial intelligence in bioelectrochemical systems

Trends in Biotechnology, 2022
Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are highly evolved and sophisticated systems that produce bioenergy via exoelectrogenic microbes. Artificial intelligence (AI) helps to understand, relate, model, and predict both process parameters and microbial diversity, resulting in higher performance.

Nitrobenzene Removal in Bioelectrochemical Systems

Environmental Science & Technology, 2009
Nitrobenzene occurs as a pollutant in wastewaters originating from numerous industrial and agricultural activities. It needs to be removed prior to discharge to sewage treatment works because of its high toxicity and persistence. In this study, we investigated the use of a bioelectrochemical system (BES) to remove nitrobenzene at a cathode coupled to ...

Microbiology of Bioelectrochemical System

2020
In the recent time more work is considered in bioelectrochemical system for obtaining power and wastewater treatment. In these systems many microbes are used to carry out the electron transfer from medium to the anode electrodes. These microbes are called electrogen since they have the capacity to transfer these electrons.

Bioelectrochemical Systems: An Outlook for Practical Applications

ChemSusChem, 2012
AbstractBioelectrochemical systems (BESs) hold great promise for sustainable production of energy and chemicals. This review addresses the factors that are essential for practical application of BESs. First, we compare benefits (value of products and cleaning of wastewater) with costs (capital and operational costs).

Bioelectrochemical Systems

2014
By generating electricity from microbially catalysed anodic oxidation processes, the greatest potential lies in the use of wastewater as a fuel, which allows wastewater treatment and energy recovery to be combined. A recent development has expanded the scope of bioelectrochemical systems from power generation and wastewater treatment to an increasing ...

Application of redox mediators in bioelectrochemical systems

Biotechnology Advances, 2018
Redox mediators (RM) are natural or artificial compounds used by microorganisms as electron acceptors and electron donors during electron transfer. Evidence collected in the last years indicates that the application of RM in bioelectrochemical systems (BES) enhanced the electron transfer from microorganisms to anodes and from cathodes to microorganisms.

2-Bromoethanesulfonate degradation in bioelectrochemical systems

Bioelectrochemistry, 2015
2-Bromoethanesulfonate (BES) is the most reported chemical inhibitor for methanogenesis in laboratory-scale bioelectrochemical systems. However, there is doubt about BES's long-term effectiveness in microbial fuel cells (MFCs). We observed BES degradation in MFCs, whereas not in microbial electrolysis cells (MECs).
