BACKGROUND: The release of antibiotics into aquatic environments has made the treatment of wastewater
containing antibiotics a world-wide public health problem. The ability of microbial fuel cells (MFCs) to harvest
electricity from organic waste and renewable biomass is attracting increased interest in wastewater treatment.
In this paper we investigated the...
Microbial electrochemical systems (MESs) have attracted much research attention in recent years due to their promising applications in renewable energy generation, bioremediation, and wastewater treatment. In a MES, microorganisms interact with electrodes via electrons, catalyzing oxidation and reduction reactions at the anode and the cathode.
The bacterial community of a...
