Microbial extracellular electron transfer (EET) is crucial for bioenergy production and wastewater resource recovery. This review summarizes the conductivity of nanowires, biofilms, and granular sludge, and discusses the factors that affect conductivity difference in detail. The high conductivity of nanowires does not necessarily result in efficient EET in microbial aggregates due to non-conductive substances and contact resistance. Improving the conductivity measurement of microbial aggregates is important for calculating EET flux and comparing it with mass transfer coefficients.
Microbial extracellular electron transfer (EET) plays a crucial role in bioenergy production and resource recovery from wastewater. Interdisciplinary efforts have been made to unveil EET processes at various spatial scales, from nanowires to microbial aggregates. Electrical conductivity has been frequently measured as an indicator of EET efficiency. In this review, the conductivity of nanowires, biofilms, and granular sludge was summarized, and factors including subjects, measurement methods, and conducting conditions that affect the conductivity difference were discussed in detail. The high conductivity of nanowires does not necessarily result in efficient EET in microbial aggregates due to the existence of non-conductive substances and contact resistance. Improving the conductivity measurement of microbial aggregates is important because it enables the calculation of an EET flux from conductivity and a comparison of the flux with mass transfer coefficients. This review provides new insight into the significance, characterization, and optimization of EET in microbial aggregates during a wastewater treatment process.
