Temperature, inocula and substrate: contrasting electroactive consortia, diversity and performance in microbial fuel cells [PDF]
The factors that affect microbial community assembly and its effects on the performance of bioelectrochemical systems are poorly understood. Sixteen microbial fuel cell (MFC) reactors were set up to test the importance of inoculum, temperature and ...

Application of electro-active biofilms [PDF]
The concept of an electro-active biofilm (EAB) has recently emerged from a few studies that discovered that certain bacteria which form biofilms on conductive materials can achieve a direct electrochemical connection with the electrode surface using it ...

Anaerobes in Bioelectrochemical Systems
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]
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.

Overcoming organic and nitrogen overload in thermophilic anaerobic digestion of pig slurry by coupling a microbial electrolysis cell [PDF]
The combination of the anaerobic digestion (AD) process with a microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) coupled to an ammonia stripping unit as a post-treatment was assessed both in series operation, to improve the quality of the effluent, and in loop ...

Enhanced product recovery from glycerol fermentation into 3-carbon compounds in a bioelectrochemical system combined with in situ extraction [PDF]
Given the large amount of crude glycerol formed as a by-product in the biodiesel industries and the concomitant decrease in its overall market price, there is a need to add extra value to this biorefinery side stream.
