Abstract

Electromethanogenesis is a promising strategy for bioconversion of CO2 to CH4 via direct electron transfer (DET) and/or H2-mediated indirect electron transfer (IET). However, specific contribution ratios of DET or H2-mediated IET are unclear. Here, pathway preferences were firstly calculated in the “cage” type cathode colonized by Methanosarcina barkeri. The highest CH4 production rate of 4.4 μmol cm−2•day−1 was detected from 36 to 72 h at −1.2 V. The average ratios of H2-mediated IET were calculated as 59.73 ± 8.29%, 69.45 ± 20.75%, 69.55 ± 18.30% and 82.97 ± 16.13% at −0.6, −0.8, −1.0 and −1.2 V (vs SHE), respectively. While above −0.4 V, only the DET pathway was detected. The real time polymerase-chain reaction amplification at the transcriptional level of ccdA and frhB showed the similar trend for the pathway preference in CH4 production. Results provide specific ratios and preference of CH4 production via these two pathways, which may be used for parameter reference for industrial applications.
