Laura Beuth, Catharina Philine Pfeiffer, Uwe Schröder
AI summary
70% confidenceThis study demonstrates that copper sulphides can act as a conductive matrix, enhancing the electrogenic performance of Geobacter-dominated biofilms in Microbial Electrochemical Systems (MES). The conductive sulphide networks facilitate electron transfer and improve the efficiency of microbial electrogenesis. This discovery has implications for the development of more efficient MES applications.
