Microbial electrochemical technologies (METs), such as microbial fuel cells (MFCs) and microbial electrolysis cells (MECs), show promise for sustainable energy generation from biomass waste and wastewater. However, further work is necessary for their...

Studies have used anaerobic-digester sludge and/or effluent as inocula for bioelectrochemical systems (BESs), such as microbial fuel cells (MFCs), for power generation, while limited studies have isolated and characterized electrochemically active ba...

It is the ambition of many researchers to finally be able to close in on the fundamental, coupled phenomena that occur during the formation and expression of electrocatalytic activity in electroactive biofilms. It is because of this desire to underst...

Extracellular electron transfer (EET), the process that allows microbes to exchange electrons in a redox capacity with solid interfaces such as minerals or electrodes, has been predominantly described in microbes that use iron during respiration. In...

Consistent accumulation of petroleum hydrocarbon (PH) in soil and sediments is a big concern and, thus, warrants a static technology to continuously remediate PH-contaminated soil. Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) can offer the desired solution usin...

Microbial electrochemical technologies provide sustainable wastewater treatment and energy production. Despite significant improvements in the power output of microbial fuel cells (MFCs), this technology is still far from practical applications. Extr...

Microbial electrosynthesis (MES) has emerged as a promising bio-electrochemical technology for sustainable CO2 conversion into valuable organic compounds since it uses living electroactive microbes to directly convert CO2 into value-added products. T...
