    CRC 1615 - Project A05: Tailored functional electrode structures for SMART bioreactors
    New carbon foam electrodes will be developed based on a ceramic template CVD process. By tailoring a porous microstructure for optimal microorganism activity and biofilm growths measured by small flow cell reactors for rapid testing of small electrode samples. To propose generic rules for the prediction of microbe electrode interactions, we will elucidate the molecular basis of the cellular response to the different materials using transcriptomic analyses. With a promising subset of materials, we aim for a first upscaling step in a plug flow reactor system with a reactor volume of up to 5 litres.

    CRC 1615 - Project C02: SMART continuous bioelectrochemical processes
    The overall objective of this project is to establish a fundamental understanding of continuous bioelectrochemical reactions and their implementation in SMART reactor systems that aid in autonomous operation and optimisation of the processes. The biotransformation of glycerol to 1,3-propanediol will be taken as a model reaction. This model reaction will be realised in a bioelectrochemical system in which the biocatalysts reside on the cathode and use cathodic electrons or in situ generated hydrogen as the electron donor. We will realize the envisioned biotransformation in parallel with whole cell biocatalysts as well as purified enzymes.
