Sparks from bacteria can power the future
Electrochemically active biofilms, which can achieve a direct electrochemicalconnection when they form on a conductive material, may be the basis of a newpower source. Biofilms of micro-organisms form naturally on solid surfaces.Until now, they have been seen as harmful, either to human health, or to industrialproducts. But recent research suggests they have properties which can be usedto catalyse or control electrochemical reactions, and could lead to a wide rangeof new products and processes over the next decade.
