Welcome!
Bioelectrochemical systems (BES)
take advantage of biological capacities (microbes, enzymes, plants) for
the catalysis of electrochemical reactions. Some examples of BES are:
Microbial Fuel Cells, Plant-Microbial Fuel Cells, Enzymatic Fuel Cells,
Microbial Electrolysis Cells, Microbial Electrosynthesis Cells,
Microbial Desalination Cells and Microbial Electrochemical Snorkel.
BES have recently emerged as a promising technology for energy recovery and for providing valuable products, such as hydrogen, ethanol and other organic molecules. In the context of post-oil and sustainable civilizations, BES appear as a promising alternative for treating different types of wastewaters and simultaneously fit within the biorefinery perspectives.
This website has been conceived to provide fundamental and state of the art information on BES, advances and applications, as well as useful tools and resources.
