The microbial electrochemical cell includes at least one compartment; at least two electrodes connected to an electrical source (A); the anode is disposed within an organic solvent (C) containing mixed and unsorted waste such as plastic, organic and inorganic wastes; one or more bacterial strains suspended within the organic solvent; the one or more bacterial strain form a biofilm (E) on the anode; the cathode is disposed in a redox mediator and buffer mixture (G); and a salt bridge or a membrane is provided to selectively transfer the ions between the organic solvent (C) containing the mixed and unsorted waste and the redox mediator and buffer mixture (G); where the waste material received within the anode chamber is transformed into an useful product.",
