Wastewater-powered high-value chemical synthesis in a hybrid bioelectrochemical system

Summary: A microbial electrochemical system could potentially be applied as a biosynthesis platform by extracting wastewater energy while converting it to value-added chemicals. However, the unfavorable thermodynamics and sluggish kinetics of in vivo whole-cell cathodic catalysis largely limit produ...
