Electroactive microorganisms markedly affect many environments in which they establish
outer-surface electrical contacts with other cells and minerals or reduce soluble extracellular …

Iron (Fe) is the fourth most abundant element in the earth's crust and plays important roles in
both biological and chemical processes. The redox reactivity of various Fe (II) forms has …

Manganese (Mn) is a biologically important and redox-active metal that may exert a poorly
recognized control on carbon (C) cycling in terrestrial ecosystems. Manganese influences …

Anaerobic digestion (AD) of waste activated sludge (WAS) is usually limited by the low
generation efficiency of methane. The addition of composite conductive materials (CMs) is a …

Manganese is one of the most abundant elements on Earth. The oxidation of manganese
has long been theorized—yet has not been demonstrated,–—to fuel the growth of …

Electrically conductive appendages from the anaerobic bacterium Geobacter sulfurreducens
were first observed two decades ago, with genetic and biochemical data suggesting that …

The study of electrically conductive protein nanowires in Geobacter sulfurreducens has led
to new concepts for long-range extracellular electron transport, as well as for the …

Carbon and nutrient inputs are required to stimulate the formation and mineralization of soil
organic carbon (SOC) through processes related to microbial growth and priming effects …

Minerals and organic matter (OM) may form intricate associations via myriad interactions. In
soils, the associations of OM with mineral surfaces are mainly investigated because of their …

Black-odorous rivers and lakes are a serious environmental problem and are frequently
reported in China. Despite this, there have been no comprehensive in-depth reviews of …
