S6E9 - Are your Wastewater Bacteria on Twitter?

Bacteria can update your calendar!


As a wastewater operator, you have no control over what comes into your system.


So regularly, a sudden gap in wastewater's content causes your bacteria to be upset, resulting at best in some drops in treatment efficiency. 


And at worst, in long-lasting issues, until they recover...


Indeed, it would incredibly ease up plant operation if bacteria could talk! 

Well, if you use the right technology, they actually can.


In a microbial fuel cell, bacteria live on the anode where they break down organic pollution. As a result of this process, they breathe electricity that travels to the cathode.


So, if you monitor this electrical current closely, you have a 24/7 precise monitoring of your bacteria, turning them into a biosensor.


That's how they can tell you about effluent changes, upsets, and even predictive maintenance of your hardware.


And if you equip them with the right piece of software, as MICROrganic Technologies  does, they can even reach out to you in unexpected places.


Indeed, that's how bacteria can update your calendar!
