Merging metabolism and power: development of a novel photobioelectric device driven by photosynthesis and respiration.

Generation of renewable energy is one of the grand challenges facing our society. We present a new bio-electric technology driven by chemical gradients generated by photosynthesis and respiration. The system does not require pure cultures nor particular species as it works with the core metabolic pr...
