H2-BR aims to develop efficient microbial electrocatalytic cells (MEC) for the simultaneous production of hydrogen, compound with the highest specific energy density of any known fuel, and the bioremediation of marine waters and sediments affected by organic pollutants. This is a multidisciplinary project, where cutting-edge technology will be combined for the nanotechnological development of high-performance electrolyzers with molecular techniques for the characterization of microbial communities and analytical techniques for evaluating the efficiency of bioremediation.
