This book reviews the latest advances in the bioelectrochemical degradation of recalcitrant
environmental contaminants. The first part introduces readers to the basic principles and
methodologies of bioelectrochemical systems electron-respiring microorganisms the electron
transfer mechanism and functional electrode materials. In turn the second part addresses the
bioelectrochemical remediation treatment of various environmental pollutants (including highly
toxic refractory organics heavy metals and nitrates) in wastewater sediment and wetlands.
Reactor configuration optimization hybrid technology amplification and enhanced removal
principles and techniques are also discussed. The book offers a valuable resource for all
researchers and professionals working in environmental science and engineering
bioelectrochemistry environmental microbiology and biotechnology.
