This project investigates the role of molecular oxygen in the degradation of organic pollutants in anaerobic environments. It challenges existing paradigms by exploring how certain bacteria can transfer electrons over distances to facilitate pollutant breakdown, potentially enhancing bioremediation strategies.
Contamination with organic pollutants is widespread in nature and a notorious threat to our water resources.
Two central paradigms are currently understood to control biodegradation in groundwater and sediments: (i) Redox gradients and interphases between compartments are hot-spots for contaminant breakdown, and (ii) biodegradation is primarily limited by local electron acceptor availability, in particular of oxygen.
