Genomic Insights into Syntrophic Lifestyle of ‘Candidatus Contubernalis alkaliaceticus’ Based on the Reversed Wood–Ljungdahl Pathway and Mechanism of Direct Electron Transfer

open access: yesLife, 2023
The anaerobic oxidation of fatty acids and alcohols occurs near the thermodynamic limit of life. This process is driven by syntrophic bacteria that oxidize fatty acids and/or alcohols, their syntrophic partners that consume the products of this oxidation,

Promoting direct interspecies electron transfer with activated carbon

open access: yesEnergy & Environmental Science, 2012
Granular activated carbon (GAC) is added to methanogenic digesters to enhance conversion of wastes to methane, but the mechanism(s) for GAC's stimulatory effect are poorly understood. GAC has high electrical conductivity and thus it was hypothesized that one mechanism for GAC stimulation of methanogenesis might be to facilitate direct interspecies ...

Direct interspecies electron transfer in anaerobic digestion: Research and technological application [PDF]

open access: yesChinese Science Bulletin, 2020
Anaerobic digestion (AD), an economical and eco-friendly strategy for renewable energy recovery, has been widely investigated and applied in the stabilization of various organic wastes. However, two major factors involved in the slow fermentation rate and low methane conversion efficiency still limit its large-scale applications around the world ...
