The objective of this dissertation is to present data and conclusions about bioelectrochemical systems using whole-cell bacteria to perform anodic and cathodic biotransformations with a variety of bacteria and reactors. Chapter 1 provides an overview of the field of bioelectrochemical systems, and the relevant background information for the two parts of the dissertation. The first part of this dissertation describes studies on bioelectrochemical systems where Geobacter sulfurreducens was grown on advective, flow-through anodes. Chapter 2 explores the effect of NaCl concentration on electricity production in flow-through anodes modified with Geobacter sulfurreducens biofilms. Chapter 3 describes studies performed on Geobacter sulfurreducens in the same systems with a focus on the modeling of biofilm growth and attachment kinetics. The role of ion transport and the kinetics of bacterial growth are evaluated, and conclusions are reached that bioelectrochemical systems with flow-through anodes lead to very fast current-development kinetics after inoculation, that NaCl concentration in the biofilm alters the biofilm kinetics, and that when excess surface area is present, the biofilms grow at an arithmetic rate.
