Journal Article
Greenman, J., Mendis, B. A., Gajda, I., & Ieropoulos, I. A. (2022). Microbial fuel cell compared to a chemostat. Chemosphere, 296, Article 133967. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.chemosphere.2022.133967

Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs) represent a green and sustainable energy conversion system that integrate bacterial biofilms within an electrochemical two-electrode set-up to produce electricity from organic waste. In this review, we focus on a novel exp... Read More about Microbial fuel cell compared to a chemostat.

Development of a bio-digital interface powered by microbial fuel cells (2022)
Journal Article
You, J., Mendis, A., Greenman, J., Freeman, J., Wolff, S., Armstrong, R., …Ieropoulos, I. (2022). Development of a bio-digital interface powered by microbial fuel cells. Sustainability, 14(3), Article 1735. https://doi.org/10.3390/su14031735

This paper reports the first relatable bio-digital interface powered by microbial fuel cells (MFCs) that was developed to inform the public and introduce the concept of using live microbes as waste processors within our homes and cities. An innovativ... Read More about Development of a bio-digital interface powered by microbial fuel cells.

Electrosynthesis, modulation, and self-driven electroseparation in microbial fuel cells (2021)
Journal Article
Gajda, I., You, J., Mendis, B. A., Greenman, J., & Ieropoulos, I. A. (2021). Electrosynthesis, modulation, and self-driven electroseparation in microbial fuel cells. iScience, 24(8), Article 102805. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.isci.2021.102805

Microbial electrosynthesis (MES) represents a sustainable platform that converts waste into resources, using microorganisms within an electrochemical cell. Traditionally, MES refers to the oxidation/reduction of a reactant at the electrode surface wi...
