The authors show that the integration of CO₂ electrolysis with microbial fermentation can efficiently produce value-added multicarbon products such as poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) from gaseous CO₂. This biohybrid system comprises electrochemical conversion of CO₂ to formate and subsequent biological conversion of formate to PHB by Cupriavidus necator.
