Bioelectrochemical Haber-Bosch process: An ammonia-producing H-2/N-2 fuel cell
Milton, Ross D.; Cai, Rong; Abdellaoui, Sofiene; Leech, Dónal; De Lacey, Antonio L.; Pita, Marcos; Minteer, Shelley D. (Wiley, 2017-02-03)Nitrogenases are the only enzymes known to reduce molecular nitrogen (N-2) to ammonia (NH3). By using methyl viologen (N, N'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridinium) to shuttle electrons to nitrogenase, N-2 reduction to NH3 can be ... -
The in vivo potential-regulated protective protein of nitrogenase in azotobacter vinelandii supports aerobic bioelectrochemical dinitrogen reduction in vitro
Milton, Ross D.; Cai, Rong; Sahin, Selmihan; Abdellaoui, Sofiene; Alkotaini, Bassam; Leech, Dónal; Minteer, Shelley D. (American Chemical Society, 2017-06-08)Nitrogenase, the only enzyme known to be able to reduce dinitrogen (N-2) to ammonia (NH3), is irreversibly damaged upon exposure to molecular oxygen (O-2). Several microbes, however, are able to grow aerobically and ...
