Article Synopsis
- This study isolated a selenate-reducing bacterium, Azospira sp. A9D-23B, to explore its ability to convert toxic selenium oxyanions into extracellular selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs).
- The bioelectrochemical (BEC) reactor setup produced significantly more SeNPs (99%) compared to a conventional bioreactor (65%), attributed to differences in selenate reductase activity.
- The findings highlight the potential of Azospira sp. A9D-23B for effective selenium detoxification, which could inform future sustainable environmental cleanup methods.
