Resumen/Abstract:
Microbial Electrochemical Cells (MxCs) are a versatile technology that allow researchers to gain insights into the fundamental physiology of bacteria that are capable a performing anode respiration- anode respiring bacteria. In addition, MxC technology can be used for sustainable wastewater filtration since it couples the removal of contaminants in wastewater with the production of power, hydrogen gas, or other high-value products. In this presentation, I will discuss the important uses of MxC technology for fundamental and applied applications using thermophilic anode respiring bacteria (ARB) as a model.
Bradley actualmente dirige el proyecto www.ScienceTheEarth.com, un blog y una comunidad web que trata las divisiones culturales a través de la ciencia y el descubrimiento.
