Bioelectrochemical CO2 Reduction and Renewable Fuels Production from Wastewater

Objectif

The threat of global warming and the diminishing fossil fuel resources are creating an ever increasing drive to implement new technologies for integrating CO2 reduction and renewable fuels production. In addition, wastewaters are increasingly recognised as a substantial, but largely untapped, renewable resource. This proposal aims at investigating and developing an innovative and versatile bioelectrochemical process for CO2 reduction and renewable fuels such as ethanol and butanol production from wastewater. We will do this by developing novel biocathode systems with mixed cultures and integrating these with bioanodes in dedicated bioelectrochemical systems. To achieve this goal, we will bring together the necessary skills, i.e. (bio)electrochemistry, microbiology, membrane science, and wastewater engineering, through national and international collaboration.
