Research

• Biofilm Bioelectrochemical Reactor for Reverse Methanogenesis and Diol Synthesis We propose a novel bioelectrochemical reactor for diol product synthesis utilizing microbial consortia for reverse methanogenesis with a bioanode as a terminal electron acceptor. For the reactor we introduce a model for design and optimization of model parameters.
