Extracellular Electron Uptake by Acetogenic Bacteria: Does H2 Consumption Favor the H2 Evolution Reaction on a Cathode or Metallic Iron?
Some acetogenic bacteria are capable of using solid electron donors, such as a cathode or metallic iron [Fe(0)]. Acetogens using a cathode as electron donor are of interest for novel applications such as microbial electrosynthesis, while microorganisms using Fe(0) as electron donor cause detrimental...
