Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) has biogeochemical significance, and practical applications that rely on DIET or DIET-based aspects of microbial physiology are growing. Mechanisms for have primarily been studied in defined cocultures which Geobacter species one the partners. Electrically conductive pili (e-pili) can be an important electrical conduit DIET. However, there may instances contacts made between transport proteins associated with outer membranes Alternatively, partners plug into carbon materials, such as granular activated carbon, cloth, biochar, long-range exchange without need e-pili.

Biochar as a stable carbon-rich material shows incredible potential to handle water/wastewater contaminants. Its application is gaining increasing interest due the availability of feedstock, simplicity preparation methods, and their enhanced physico-chemical properties. The efficacy biochar remove organic inorganic pollutants depends on its surface area, pore size distribution, functional groups, molecules be removed, while physical architecture properties depend nature feedstock method/conditions. For instance, pyrolysis at high temperatures generally produces hydrophobic biochars with higher area micropore volume, allowing it more suitable for contaminants sorption, whereas produced low own smaller size, lower oxygen-containing groups are In field treatment, can have extensive prospects. been widely used an additive/support media during anaerobic digestion filter removal suspended matter, heavy metals pathogens. was also tested efficiency support-based catalyst degradation dyes recalcitrant current review discusses different methods production provides overview applications in wastewater treatment.

Conductive materials (CM) have been extensively reported to enhance methane production in anaerobic digestion processes. The occurrence of direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) microbial communities, as an alternative or complementary indirect (via hydrogen formate), is the main explanation given justify improvement production. Not disregarding that DIET can be promoted presence certain CM, it surely does not explain all observations. In fact, methanogenic environments was only unequivocally demonstrated cocultures Geobacter metallireducens with Methanosaeta harundinacea Methanosarcina barkeri and frequently sp. are detected improved driven systems. Furthermore, conductive carbon nanotubes were shown accelerate activity methanogens growing pure cultures, where expected occur, hydrogenotrophic ubiquitous full-scale digesters treating for example brewery wastewaters, indicating important mechanism those This paper presents overview effect several iron-based carbon-based CM bioengineered systems, focusing on communities' changes. Control assays, fundamental elements support major conclusions experiments, critically revised discussed.

Abstract In the context of climate change and circular economy, biochar has recently found many applications in various sectors as a versatile recycled material. Here, we review application biochar-based for carbon sink, covering agronomy, animal farming, anaerobic digestion, composting, environmental remediation, construction, energy storage. The ultimate storage reservoirs are soils, civil infrastructure, landfills. Biochar-based fertilisers, which combine traditional fertilisers with nutrient carrier, promising agronomy. use feed additive animals shows benefits terms growth, gut microbiota, reduced enteric methane production, egg yield, endo-toxicant mitigation. Biochar enhances digestion operations, primarily biogas generation upgrading, performance sustainability, mitigation inhibitory impurities. composts, controls release greenhouse gases microbial activity. Co-composted improves soil properties crop productivity. Pristine engineered can also be employed water remediation to remove pollutants. added cement or asphalt, thus conferring structural functional advantages. Incorporating biocomposites insulation, electromagnetic radiation protection moisture control. Finally, synthesising materials requires additional functionalisation.
