In the scenario of a sustainable and optimised use of sources Microbial fuel cells could become a new, important ways to make renewable carbon-neutral energy from wastes. Bacteria living in anodic and cathodic biofilm are able to break down organic matter producing clean water and electric current, as well as causing microbial corrosion. Starting from the study on microbial corrosion and the positive first exploitation of electric current generated by microbial biocathodes in industrial bio-sensors for cooling circuits, it is expected now new applications of “microbial-electricity” for energy technologies and several biotechnology progresses.
