Suggested metabolic pathway for the cathodic electrofermentation of lactate at an applied potential of –1V vs. Ag/AgCl, and the microorganisms involved. The pathway proposed includes (i) (bio)electrochemical hydrogen production, (ii) lactate fermentation, (iii) homoacetogenesis, and (iv) butyrate production by chain elongation.
