[edit]- Decomposition of organic or inorganic carbon by bacteria is paired with the release of electrons extracellularly towards electrodes, which generate electric currents. The microbe's released electrons are transferred by biocatalytic enzymes or redox-active compounds from the cell to the anode in the presence of a viable carbon source. This creates an electrical current as electrons move from anode to a physically separated cathode.[1][2]

- The anode is placed at a particular depth within the soil, while the cathode rests on top the soil and is exposed to air. ... Soil-based MFCs are becoming popular educational tools for science classrooms.[3]
