Charge storage capacity of electromethanogenic biocathodes

[EN] Methanogenic biocathodes (MB) can convert CO2 and electricity into methane. This feature, that allows them to potentially be used for long-term electrical energy storage, has aroused great interest during the past 10 years. MB can also operate as biological supercapacitors, a characteristic tha...
