An electrolytic-hydrogen-fed moving bed biofilm reactor for efficient microbial electrosynthesis of methane from CO2

Wenfang Cai et al.

Summary: A novel electrolytic-hydrogen-fed moving bed biofilm reactor (electroMBBR) for methane production was developed to address the challenge of ensuring high coulombic efficiency under high current density in hydrogen-mediated MES reactors. The reactor achieved a maximum methane production rate of 1.42 L/day at 5 A, demonstrating the potential for scaling up and practical application of this technology. The microbial community analysis revealed Methanobrevibacter as the dominant methane-producing archaea in the reactor.

Ionic strength of the liquid phase of different sludge streams in a wastewater treatment plant

T. Prot et al.

Summary: In a wastewater treatment plant, the composition of sludge streams in the liquid phase varies with time and place. This study aims to evaluate the potential for the formation of precipitates and equilibria for weak acids/bases by determining the ionic strength and chemical composition. Based on a literature review, the concentration ranges for the major constituents of the liquid phase in different streams are proposed, and the reasons for concentration evolution and exceptional cases are discussed. The ionic strength and the contribution of its constituents are calculated, and the utilization of ionic strength in literature is also examined.

Constraining the increased frequency of global precipitation extremes under warming

Chad W. Thackeray et al.

Summary: Climate change is causing more frequent and intense precipitation extremes. By using climate models, researchers have developed an emergent constraint that suggests a 32% increase in the frequency of precipitation extremes by the end of the century. This relationship between past and future changes in precipitation extremes can help constrain future projections and reduce uncertainties in climate models.

Microbial electrosynthesis of methane and acetate-comparison of pure and mixed cultures

Jan-Niklas Hengsbach et al.

Summary: The electrochemical process of microbial electrosynthesis (MES) is used to drive the metabolism of electroactive microorganisms for the production of valuable chemicals and fuels. Mixed cultures generally show better performance than pure cultures in MES, with a higher methane and acetate production rate. The focus of this review is on comparing the performance of pure and mixed cultures in MES.

High-rate microbial electrosynthesis using a zero-gap flow cell and vapor-fed anode design

Gahyun Baek et al.

Summary: This study designed a microbial electrosynthesis (MES) reactor with a zero-gap electrode configuration to convert carbon dioxide into valuable chemical products using renewable energy. The results showed that the reactor had high chemical production rates and minimal pH changes. Furthermore, the microbial community on the biocathode was dominated by methanogens and acetogens.

Trimetallic Pentlandites (Fe,Co,Ni)9S8 for the Electrocatalytical HER in Acidic Media

Mathias Smialkowski et al.

Summary: Recently, pentlandite materials have been found to have promising properties for the hydrogen evolution reaction. By synthesizing a series of trimetallic FeCoNi-pentlandite materials and composites through high-temperature synthesis and categorizing them by purity, we have determined their electrocatalytic properties for the hydrogen evolution reaction. These properties were then correlated to hydrogen adsorption energies calculated using density functional theory (DFT), providing insights into the activity and origin of the pentlandite system and guiding meaningful approaches for catalyst synthesis.

The Measurement, Application, and Effect of Oxygen in Microbial Fermentations: Focusing on Methane and Carboxylate Production

Jose Antonio Magdalena et al.

Summary: Many practitioners believe that oxygen is detrimental to anaerobic fermentation processes, but intentional oxygen sparging can effectively remove H2S in anaerobic digestion systems. Additionally, microaeration techniques have shown that small doses of oxygen can enhance process performance and promote the degradation of recalcitrant compounds. However, existing oxygen dosing techniques are imprecise, highlighting the need for robust monitoring and process control.
