Microbial electrochemical technologies are realized in devices termed bioelectrochemical systems BES . Primary METs are based on the microbially assisted oxidation or reduction of substrates and the microbially facilitated transfer of electrons between the substrate and the electrode, which serves as microbial electron acceptor or donor. In this chapter the fundamentals of the microbial extracellular electron transfer are discussed, including the different electron transfer mechanisms and their thermodynamics i.e. their energetic efficiency . Subsequently, major BES classes are presented. These include microbial fuel cells MFCs for electricity generation, microbial electrolysis cells MECs or BES for the production of value added products as well as bioremediation and biosensor applications. As microbial electrochemical technologies face a rapid progress in their development the chapter highlights the principle concepts rather than engineering details. 9780444640475 Published version http //www.scopus.com/record/display.url eid=2 s2.0 85079530637 origin=inward Capitolo Contributo in volume federico.aulenta AULENTA FEDERICO
