Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) can be suppressed under ammonia-stressed condition – Reevaluate the role of conductive materials

Water Research, 2020
Thermal hydrolysis pretreatment (THP) and anaerobic digestion (AD) integrated (THP-AD) process is a promising process for sludge management. However, the high ammonia production during the THP-AD process severely affects system's stability and performance.

Sparking Anaerobic Digestion: Promoting Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer to Enhance Methane Production

iScience, 2020
Anaerobic digestion was one of the first bioenergy strategies developed, yet the interactions of the microbial community that is responsible for the production of methane are still poorly understood. For example, it has only recently been recognized that

Disentangling the syntrophic electron transfer mechanisms of Candidatus geobacter eutrophica through electrochemical stimulation and machine learning

Scientific Reports, 2021
Interspecies hydrogen transfer (IHT) and direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) are two syntrophy models for methanogenesis. Their relative importance in methanogenic environments is still unclear. Our recent discovery of a novel species Candidatus

Plugging in or Going Wireless: Strategies for Interspecies Electron Transfer

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2014
Interspecies exchange of electrons enables a diversity of microbial communities to gain energy from reactions that no one microbe can catalyze. The first recognized strategies for interspecies electron transfer were those that relied on chemical ...
