Abstract
Key findings
- The hybrid system demonstrated enhanced metal reduction rates compared to individual MFC and MEC systems.
- Optimization of operating conditions, such as pH and electrode materials, significantly improved metal reduction efficiency.
- The system's ability to sustainably reduce multiple metals was attributed to the synergistic interactions between the MFC and MEC components.
