Interspecies electron transfer is a fundamental factor determining the efficiency of anaerobic digestion (AD), which involves syntrophy between fermentative bacteria and methanogens. Direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) induced by conductive materials can optimize this process offering a sig...
