FAFU Research Team Makes Steady Progress in Microbial Photoelectrochemistry

Recently, the research team of Prof. Zhou Shungui in Environmental Bioelectrochemistry Center, College of Resources and Environment, has made steady progress in microbial photoelectrochemistry. The related results are shown in the three published articles in Environmental Science & Technology (Q1, IF=9.028), a top journal of environmental science. The research reveals the new system and mechanism of methanogenic and denitrification driven by microbial photoelectrochemistry.
