Abstract
Key findings
- Vanadium reduction enhances the electrochemical activity of Shewanella putrefaciens biofilms in MFCs.
- The presence of vanadium ions increases the biofilm's ability to transfer electrons to the anode, resulting in improved MFC performance.
- The study suggests that vanadium reduction can be a useful strategy to enhance the efficiency of electroactive biofilms in MFCs.
