Pro and Cons for Foundational Advance track selection and distribute. All
Look into how Reading and Bielefeld made improvements to their respective fuel cells. Battery
Investigate ways of engineering the bacteria so that electrons could be transferred to the mediator M. blue faster (e.g. by making the cell more porous Battery
Prepare synthetic wastewater. Battery
Investigate other ways of engineering the fuel cell to increase efficiency (e.g. mixed culture etc). Battery
