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

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is one of the paramount technologies for organic wastes treatment.
However, there still remain intractable issues including low digestibility and sluggish …

Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) has been received tremendous attention,
recently, due to the advantages of accelerating methane production via organics reduction …

Geobacter, as a typical electroactive microorganism, is the “engine” of interspecies electron
transfer (IET) between microorganisms. However, it does not have a dominant position in all …

Microbial extracellular electron transfer plays an important role in diverse biogeochemical
cycles, metal corrosion, bioelectrochemical technologies, and anaerobic digestion …

To realize energy self-sufficiency demand is a key component of carbon–neutral goal of
wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Waste activated sludge (WAS), as the by-product of …

The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility that the suppression of acidity in
anaerobic digestion of kitchen wastes could be alleviated with additional electric field. The …

Biomethane as a sustainable, alternative, and carbon-neutral renewable energy source to
fossil fuels is highly needed to alleviate the global energy crisis and climate change. The …

Electrotrophy, the growth of microbes on extracellular electron donors, drives important
biogeochemical cycles and has practical applications. Studies of Fe (II)-based electrotrophy …

Microbially catalyzed corrosion of metals is a substantial economic concern. Aerobic
microbes primarily enhance Fe 0 oxidation through indirect mechanisms and their impact …
