Paving the way for bioelectrotechnology: Integrating electrochemistry into bioreactors.

ABSTRACT: The reactor systems used for microbial electrosynthesis, i.e. bioelectrochemical systems for achieving bioproduction so far reported in literature are relatively small in scale and highly diverse in their architecture and modes of operation. The often diverging requirements of the electrochemical and the biological processes and the interdisciplinarity of the field make the engineering of these systems a special challenge. This has led to multiple, differently optimized approaches of reactor vessels, designs and operating conditions making standardization and normalization or even a systematic engineering almost impossible. Overcoming this lack of standardization, scalability and knowledge-driven engineering is the driving force for this work introducing an upgrade kit for bioreactors tran
