The ToOLTuBES project (Toxicity & Organic Load Tracking using BioElectrochemical Systems) will advance the development of a water quality biosensor towards technology readiness level TRL 7 (demonstration in an operating environment at pre-commercial scale). BES technology, which incorporates an electrode-supported microbial biofilm that generates electricity from oxidation of organics, and has great potential for low-cost, real-time sensing applications. The magnitude of the electrical current generated correlates with the organic loading and conversely when toxic compounds are present the signal is inhibited. The sensor will be used to monitor organic load and toxicity levels in real-time on wastewater influent samples from a real-world, wastewater treatment plant (WWTP). Long-term monitoring data will be collected over two years and used to inform design and cohesion of a combined sensor package, which will propel the technology towards commercial realisation.

ToOLTuBES项目（使用生物电化学系统的毒性和有机负荷跟踪）将推动水质生物传感器的开发，使其达到技术准备水平TRL 7（在商业前规模的操作环境中进行演示）。BES技术，它结合了电极支撑的微生物生物膜，通过氧化有机物发电，在低成本、实时传感应用方面具有巨大潜力。产生的电流的大小与有机负载相关，相反，当存在有毒化合物时，信号被抑制。该传感器将用于实时监测来自真实世界的废水处理厂（WWTP）的废水进水样品的有机负荷和毒性水平。长期监测数据将在两年内收集，并用于为组合传感器包的设计和凝聚提供信息，这将推动该技术走向商业实现。
