Abstract

Key findings

  • Glyphosate degradation is significantly enhanced in an MFC, with a degradation efficiency of up to 90%.
  • The anodic microbial community in the MFC is dominated by bacteria that are capable of degrading glyphosate.
  • The MFC's electrochemical performance is improved due to the presence of a biofilm that enhances the transfer of electrons.
