In this study, the electrochemical properties of a Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 biofilm were investigated using a mini-microbial electrochemical system. The performance of the biofilm was shown, using discharge test and cyclic voltammetry investigations, to improve over time. Differential pulse voltammograms were also acquired to determine the type of extracellular electron transfer that took place and to characterize the structure of the microbial biofilm formed on the electrode of the electrochemical system. These results indicated that extracellular electron transfer via a flavin-like mediator chemical predominated as the biofilm grew. The results, combined with a comparison of the measured current density with the calculated value of a seamless single-layered biofilm, also suggested that S. oneidensis MR-1 formed a multi-layered biofilm on the electrode.

Summary: The global demand for transitioning from a fossil-based to a bio-based economy for low-carbon/renewable energy and products is driving the emergence of microbial fuel cell (MFC) technologies. Diversification of MFC systems, such as BET, MES, BES, EF, MDC, MEC, and EM, is actively being researched to enhance product output and explore mechanism specificity. The key role of microbial catalyzed electrochemical reactions in MFCs is directly linked to the electrometabolic activity of microorganisms, showing potential for multi-faced applications.

Accurate measurement of internal resistance in microbial fuel cells by improved scanning electrochemical impedance spectroscopy

Bongkyu Kim, In Seop Chang, Richard M. Dinsdale, Alan J. Guwy

Summary: The scanning electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) technique can be used to confirm the variation of internal resistance in microbial fuel cells (MFCs) under different working conditions, including charge transfer resistance and ohmic resistance. By measuring the overall internal resistance of the system and the charge transfer resistance of the anode and cathode using the scanning EIS method, it was found that the resistances of each electrode changed variably. This method revealed that the rapid increase in the anode's charge transfer resistance was the main cause of power overshoot, providing valuable insights for understanding undesirable phenomena in MFCs.

Stacy Simai Reginald, Min Ji Kim, Hyeryeong Lee, Nabilah Fazil, Serah Choi, Soyoung Oh, Junhyeok Seo, In Seop Chang

Summary: This study introduces a gold-binding peptide to NAD(+)/NADH-dependent formate dehydrogenase (FDH) through genetic modification, enabling direct wiring of the enzyme to the electrode surface. The gold-binding activity of the fused enzymes depends on fusion site and tertiary structure, with the highest activity observed at the C-terminus. The presence of the gold-binding peptide increases the stability of the enzyme electrode and promotes direct electrochemical reactions. This method shows promise for bio-electronic applications involving NAD(+)/NADH-dependent enzymes.

Muhammad Tayyab Khalid, Tanzila Anjum, Asim Laeeq Khan, Fahad Rehman, Muhammad Aslam, Mazhar Amjad Gilani, Faheem Hassan Akhtar, Mungyu Lee, In Seop Chang, Muhammad Yasin

Summary: Polyimide (P84)-based polymeric membranes were fabricated and used as spargers in the bubble column reactor (BCR) to enhance the gas-liquid mass transfer (GL-MT) rate of oxygen in water. Incorporating polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as a porogen and a Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework (ZIF-8) resulted in high porosity and hydrophobicity in the membranes, leading to increased GL-MT efficiency. The study demonstrated that ZIF-8 based membranes have the potential to improve dissolved oxygen concentration in BCR through bubble size reduction, increased bubble number, and improved hydrophobicity.
