Functional dynamics of microbial communities in bioelectrochemical systems: The importance of eco-electrogenic treatment of complex substrates

Recent advances in biotechnology are making it increasingly easy to engineer microbial communities as biocatalysts of bioelectrochemical systems. This is vital in the context of precision electroactive biofilm, as extracellular electron transfer efficiency within electrogenic consortia at the microbe/anode interface is critical for bioelectricity production in a bioelectrochemical device. This research focuses on the use of real multispecies...
