Promoting direct interspecies electron transfer with activated carbon
Energy & 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 ...

Carbon cloth stimulates direct interspecies electron transfer in syntrophic co-cultures [PDF]
Bioresource Technology, 2014 This study investigated the possibility that the electrical conductivity of carbon cloth accelerates direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) in co-cultures. Carbon cloth accelerated metabolism of DIET co-cultures (Geobacter metallireducens-Geobacter sulfurreducens and G.metallireducens-Methanosarcina barkeri) but did not promote metabolism of co ...

Expanding the Diet for DIET: Electron Donors Supporting Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer (DIET) in Defined Co-Cultures [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) has been recognized as an alternative to interspecies H2 transfer as a mechanism for syntrophic growth, but previous studies on DIET with defined co-cultures have only documented DIET with ethanol as the ...

Facilitation of interspecies electron transfer in anaerobic processes through pine needle biochar
Water Science and Technology, 2022 Role of biochar in promoting methanogenesis during anaerobic processes was investigated in this research. Biochar produced from Himalayan pine needles was used as medium for conductive material mediated interspecies electron transfer (CM-IET) amongst the

Effects of foam nickel supplementation on anaerobic digestion: Direct interspecies electron transfer
Journal of Hazardous Materials, 2020 Stimulating direct interspecies electron transfer with conductive materials is a promising strategy to overcome the limitation of electron transfer efficiency in syntrophic methanogenesis of industrial wastewater. This paper assessed the impact of conductive foam nickel (FN) supplementation on syntrophic methanogenesis and found that addition of 2.45 g/

Transcriptomic and genetic analysis of direct interspecies electron transfer. [PDF]
Appl Environ Microbiol, 2013 ABSTRACT The possibility that metatranscriptomic analysis could distinguish between direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) and H 2 interspecies transfer (HIT) in anaerobic communities was investigated by comparing gene transcript abundance in cocultures in which Geobacter sulfurreducens
