Las Electro-poderosas: Bacterias creadoras de electricidad
Abstract
A medida que se estudian a las bacterias, más nos sorprenden, esta vez nos encontramos con bacterias que tienen la facultad de producir electricidad mediante el uso de un dispositivo conocido como Celda de Combustible Microbiana (CCM), que produce electricidad por medio de la respiración celular, además este descubrimiento puede tener diversas aplicaciones para lograr tecnologías amigables con el ambiente. Entre las aplicaciones de la CCM está el tratamiento de aguas residuales de diversos efluentes, tratamiento de suelos contaminados y recuperación de metales de interés.
