1. A long journey from bioanode to biocathode
Abstract : Better utilization of renewable sources of energy and recovery of resources from waste streams are important challenges for researchers. Bioelectrochemical systems (BESs) are new technologies which e.g. could be used to produce green energy from waste sources or store renewable electricity as chemical fuels. READ MORE

2. Influence of electrode material and stochastic factors on the performance and microbial community assembly in microbial electrochemical systems
Abstract : Microbial electrolysis cells (MECs) are systems with microbial communities in the form of biofilms on electrode surfaces. The electrogenic bacteria in the anode biofilm act as catalysts for the oxidization of organic compounds, leading to release of electrons, generation of electrical current, and production of hydrogen and methane at the cathode.

3. Microbial communities in biological electrochemical systems
Abstract : Biological electrochemical systems (BES) can be used as biosensors and for recovery of resources from waste streams. BES utilizes microbial communities that grow on the surface of electrodes in the form of biofilms. READ MORE

4. Design and characterization of direct electron transfer based biofuel cells including tests in cell cultures
Abstract : Enzymatic fuel cells (EFCs) are bioelectronic devices based on redox enzymes, which convert chemical energy into electrical energy via biochemical reactions. A major difficulty to overcome is to successfully connect (using e.g., immobilization) the enzymes to the electrode surface. READ MORE
