Microbial electrochemical technologies (MET) are a set of processes that leverage the activities of microorganisms to convert chemical energy from organic or inorganic compounds into electrical energy or to drive chemical reactions. These technologies primarily focus on the interactions between microbes and electrodes in electrochemical systems. Here are some key components and applications of MET: \#\#\# Key Components 1. **Microbial Fuel Cells (MFCs)**: These devices convert the biochemical energy from microbial metabolism directly into electricity.
