This mini-review examines bioelectrochemical systems (BES) for pesticide removal from water, addressing widespread agricultural pesticide contamination. The paper discusses BES fundamentals, current pesticide removal methods (adsorption, advanced oxidation, biological), and emerging applications including in situ groundwater remediation and integration with granular activated carbon (GAC) as bioanodes. GAC's high surface area, biofilm support capacity, and charge storage enable promising hybrid approaches, though further research is needed to clarify GAC's dual role as adsorbent and bioelectrochemical electrode.

Abstract

The widespread use of pesticides for agricultural purposes results in their presence in the environment. Pesticide occurrence is causing potential negative impacts on human health and environmental deterioration in general. One of the interdisciplinary field to implement a technology for converting and conserving resources is bioelectrochemistry. An integrated system based on bioelectrochemical processes, namely Bioelectrochemical System (BES), has been well developed to date. The application of BES to remove various materials in the bioremediation process has been well established in the combination with diverse technologies. The set up of integrated BES with Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) is one of the promising solutions to enhance the removal of the pesticide in water. The BES in situ has been implemented to remove contaminants in groundwater. This mini-review discusses the recent development of pesticide removal and environmental remediation using bioelectrochemical approaches, offering new insight into the big scope of green technology application.
