Limitations for Current Production in Geobacter sulfurreducens Biofilms

open access: yesChemSusChem, 2013
AbstractDevices that exploit electricity produced by electroactive bacteria such as Geobacter sulfurreducens have not yet been demonstrated beyond the laboratory scale. The current densities are far from the maximum that the bacteria can produce because fundamental properties such as the mechanism of extracellular electron transport and factors ...

The Influence of Biodegradability and Inoculum‐to‐Substrate Ratio on the Anaerobic Digestion Performance and Microbial Diversity

open access: yesGCB Bioenergy, Volume 17, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Continuous‐flow anaerobic digestion (AD) of wheat straw (WS) is often limited by volatile fatty acid (VFA) accumulation at low inoculum‐to‐substrate ratios (ISRs). Here, biochar (8.0 g/L) recovered methane production in overloaded systems (ISR 0.5, HRT 12 days), increasing yields by 658.45 mL/g‐VS.

Electrochemical and Microbiological Characterization of Bioanode Communities Exhibiting Variable Levels of Startup Activity

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2019
Microbial electrochemical technologies (METs) require the establishment of anode biofilms to generate electrical current. The factors driving bioanode formation and their variability during startup remain unclear, leading to a lack of effective ...

Electrochemical activity of Geobacter sulfurreducens biofilms on stainless steel anodes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Stainless steel was studied as anode for the biocatalysis of acetate oxidation by biofilms of Geobacter sulfurreducens. Electrodeswere individually polarized at different potential in the range−0.20V to +0.20V vs. Ag/AgCl either in the same reactor or in

The triheme cytochrome PpcF from Geobacter metallireducens exhibits distinct redox properties

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2018
Electrogenic bacteria, such as Geobacter, can couple the oxidation of carbon sources to the reduction of extracellular electron acceptors; such acceptors include toxic and radioactive metals, as well as electrode surfaces, making Geobacter a suitable ...

Electrochemical characterization of Geobacter lovleyi identifies limitations of microbial fuel cell performance in constructed wetlands [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Microbial Fuel Cells implemented in Constructed Wetlands (CW-MFCs) show limited performance. Geobacter Lovleyi has been demonstrated to be one of the predominant bacterial species in active CW-MFCs. The aim of this study was to characterize the growth of

In Silico Modeling of Geobacter Species. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
This project employed a combination of in silico modeling and physiological studies to begin the construction of models that could predict the activity of Geobacter species under different environmental conditions. A major accomplishment of the project was the development of the first genome-based models of organisms known environmental relevance. This

Influent Wastewater Microbiota and Temperature Influence Anaerobic Membrane Bioreactor Microbial Community [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sustainable municipal wastewater recovery scenarios highlight benefits of anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs). However, influences of continuous seeding by influent wastewater and temperature on attached-growth AnMBRs are not well understood. In this
