Abstract
⺠A two-chamber methane-producing microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) is investigated. ⺠94% of the influent acetate was oxidized at the anode with 91% coulombic efficiency. ⺠Methane was microbially produced at the cathode with 79% electron capture efficiency. ⺠Low-strength wastewater treatment with good energy efficiency and low sludge production. ⺠Good potential to refine both liquid effluent and biogas from anaerobic digestors.
