Microbial Electrochemical Systems and Technologies: It Is Time To Report the Capital Costs [PDF]
Environmental Science & Technology, 2016 ■ INTRODUCTION Microbial electrochemical systems and technologies (METs) that can convert chemical energy stored in organic or inorganic matter into energy and/or to valuable chemicals have been studied extensively in the past decade. Generally, a MET reactor is composed of anodes and cathodes separated by membranes.

Perchlorate Removal in Microbial Electrochemical Systems With Iron/Carbon Electrodes [PDF]
Frontiers in Chemistry, 2019 Perchlorate removal was tested in the cathode chamber of microbial electrochemical systems (MESs). Dual-chambers MESs were constructed and operated in batch mode with four kinds of cathode materials including Fe/C particles (Fe/C), zero valent iron particles (ZVI), blank carbon felt (CF), and active carbon (AC).
