Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are eco-friendly bio-electrochemical reactors that use exoelectrogens as biocatalyst for electricity harvest from organic biomass, which could also be used as biosensors for long-term environmental monitoring. Glucose and xylose, as the primary ingredients from cellulose hydrolyzates, is an appealing substrate for MFC. Nevertheless, neither xylose nor glucose can be utilized as carbon source by well-studied exoelectrogens such as . In this study, to harvest the electricity by rapidly harnessing xylose and glucose from corn stalk hydrolysate, we herein firstly designed glucose and xylose co-fed engineered microbial consortium, in which as the fermenter converted glucose and xylose into lactate to feed the exoelectrogens ( ). To produce more lactate in , we eliminated the ethanol and acetate pathway via deleting (phosphotransacetylase gene) and (alcohol dehydrogenase gene) and further constructed a synthesis and delivery system through expressing (lactate dehydrogenase gene) and (lactate transporter gene). To facilitate extracellular electron transfer (EET) of , a biosynthetic flavins pathway from was expressed in a highly hydrophobic CP-S1, which not only improved direct-contacted EET via enhancing adhesion to the carbon electrode but also accelerated the flavins-mediated EET via increasing flavins synthesis. Furthermore, we optimized the ratio of glucose and xylose concentration to provide a stable carbon source supply in MFCs for higher power density. The glucose and xylose co-fed MFC inoculated with the recombinant consortium generated a maximum power density of 104.7 ± 10.0 mW/m , which was 7.2-folds higher than that of the wild-type consortium (12.7 ± 8.0 mW/m ). Lastly, we used this synthetic microbial consortium in the corn straw hydrolyzates-fed MFC, obtaining a power density 23.5 ± 6.0 mW/m .
