Microbial Electrosynthesis

Welcome at the Microbial Electrosynthesis Research Group! This research group is headed by Associate Professor Jo Philips and is part of at the Department of Biological and Chemical Engineering of Aarhus University in Denmark.

The main interest of the Microbial Electrosynthesis Research Group is the use of microorganisms for the conversion of CO2 and electric power into biofuels or other biochemicals.  Our main research focus of is the better understanding the microorganisms capable of microbial electrosynthesis.

In addition, the Microbial Electrosynthesis Research Group is interested in microbial corrosion, biofilm formation and gas fermentation. Look at Research for more information on our research activities.
