AB  - A microbial fuel cell-photocatalysis system with a novel photocatalytic 
      air-cathode (MFC-PhotoCat) was proposed for synergistic degradation of 
      2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) with simultaneous electricity generation. Stable 
      electricity generation of 350 mV was achieved during 130 days of operation. 
      Besides, 50 mg L(-1) TCP was completely degraded within 72 h, and the rate 
      constant of 0.050 h(-1) was 1.8-fold higher than MFC with air-cathode without 
      N-TiO(2) photocatalyst. Degradation pathway was proposed based on the 
      intermediates detected and density functional theory (DFT) calculation, with two 
      open-chain intermediates (2-chloro-4-keto-2-hexenedioic acid and hexanoic acid) 
      detected. Furthermore, hierarchical cluster and PCoA revealed significant shifts 
      of microbial community structures, with enriched exoelectrogen (55.2% of 
      Geobacter) and TCP-degrading microbe (7.1% of Thauera) on the cathode biofilm as 
      well as 61.8% of Pseudomonas in the culture solution. This study provides a 
      promising strategy for synergic degradation of recalcitrant contaminants by 
      intimate-coupling of MFC and photocatalysis.
