Electroactive microorganisms in bioelectrochemical systems [PDF]
Nature Reviews Microbiology, 2019 A vast array of microorganisms from all three domains of life can produce electrical current and transfer electrons to the anodes of different types of bioelectrochemical systems. These exoelectrogens are typically iron-reducing bacteria, such as Geobacter sulfurreducens, that produce high power densities at moderate temperatures.
