    The device comprises the following components, identified by the corresponding numerical references:
    1. First portion of organic matter. It is a solid solution of yeast and / or tryptone and / or chitin. Microorganisms, such as anaerobic geobacteria, are preferably placed at the top through a liquid solution.
    2. Second portion of organic matter, formed by fertilizers, in the form of a solid layer.

    linear between the anode and the cathode.
    6. Fine metal outer grid, for example, 2 mm.
    7. Fine metal outer grid, for example, 1 mm.
    8. Thick metal intermediate grid, for example, formed by 5 x 5 x 5cm metal meshes). This grid is used for placing soil and planting plants (not shown) on it. In addition, it forms a semi-hermetic structure for the anode and cathode. Together with the outer grilles it forms a grid structure.
    9. Aerobic cavity adjacent and in contact with the cathode (3) and closed. The oxygen reaches this cavity through its lower part.
    10. Oxygen inlet channel. The oxygen passes through to fill the aerobic cavity.
    11. Base structure, for example, of 5 mm thick plastic.
    12. Air. Air passes through the bottom of the base structure 11 to enter the inlet channel 10.
    13. Pillar, for example, of 5 mm thick plastic. It is connected to the base structure 11 and is used to support the grid structure.
    14. Pillar, for example, of 5 mm thick plastic. It is connected to the base structure 11 and is used to support the grid structure.
    The steps of the process for the production of electric energy, which is as follows, are shown in Figure 2.
    As indicated above, anaerobic geobacteria are placed at the top through a liquid solution on the first portion 1 of organic matter, that is, the solid solution of yeast and / or tryptone and / or chitin. Although it is not essential, it is preferable that these microorganisms have gone through an electrocution process, whereby the microorganisms are electrocuted with a different time frequency and different voltages (for example, in a single electrocution process of one week, it would be with a voltage of 0.1 to 0.5 volts on days 1 and 2, increasing to 1.0 and 1.5 on day 7). With this process, only the most resistant and conductive microorganisms will be maintained and reproduced, generating better results.
    Water is then added to a plant (not shown) that has been planted in a soil arranged on the grid structure 6, 7, 8, so that the organic substances produced by the roots in the process of photosynthesis are carried away, also dragging other organic liquids from the earth.

    When the water falls and fills the entire chamber 5, the substances of the second portion 2 of solid fertilizer and the plant are mixed. The geobacteria of the first portion 1 of organic matter are activated with the addition of this water and begin to spread. In this way, a binary system with a solid and a layer of liquid is created, both being responsible for the different chemical and biological tasks in the procedure.
    Geobacteria that are able to nourish from larger organic molecules will move to the lower and solid parts of the device, while the rest will remain in the upper liquid areas. These geobacteria in the liquid parts tend to be the most conductive, with the greatest resistance to electric fields.
    When these geobacteria break down organic molecules, electrons are released. To redirect a constant current without allowing electrons to be redirected to any other molecule, the broken molecules are led to the cathode 3 by attracting by means of the oxygen molecules in the aerobic cavity 9, so that the electrons are conserved inside the device by means of attractions simple chemicals. The device itself generates molecules of hydroxide, water and oxygen.
    After establishing the electric current, the geobacteria, which have preferably passed through the electrocution stage create nanometric strains, joining in chamber 5, moving from cathode 3 to anode 4.
    These strains attract electrons in the liquid, creating a linear flow that allows a more reliable and constant current. At the same time, the loss of electrons in the lower parts of the device is redirected to anode 4.
    The use of this binary system (liquid-solid) allows the strongest and largest molecules to settle in the solid part and the lightest ones in the liquid chamber. The system optimizes efficiency by taking advantage of all types of microorganisms and molecules.
    In figures 3 and 4 a second embodiment of the device for the generation of electric energy according to the present invention is shown. For simplicity, in this embodiment the same numerical references are used as in the previous embodiment to indicate the same elements.

    The main difference of this second embodiment is the disposition of anode 4 and cathode 3, which in this case are arranged inclined to each other defining a truncated cone shape, as can be seen in Figure 3, and the aerobic cavity 9 being defined in the central part of the device.
    In addition, the device comprises an electrical connection box 17, which is connected to an external connector 18, for example of USB type, to be able to connect electrically powered devices.
    In Figures 5 and 6, a third and fourth embodiments of the electric power generation device according to the present invention are shown, which are specially designed for modular assembly, so that a plurality of devices can be joined together, forming a module As before, also in this case the same numerical references have been used to identify the same elements, for reasons of simplicity.
    One of the differences with respect to the previous embodiments in which all cathodes 3 and anodes 4 of the module are connected to each other by cables. In addition, anodes 4 and cathodes 3 are joined with a resistor 16.
    It should also be noted that in the embodiment shown in Figure 5, the anaerobic cavity 9 is shared between several module devices by tubes, allowing a constant flow of oxygen.
    It should be noted that in these additional embodiments, the process for the production of electrical energy is the same as described above.
    Although reference has been made to a specific embodiment of the invention, it is evident to one skilled in the art that the described device and method are susceptible of numerous variations and modifications, and that all the mentioned details can be replaced by others. technically equivalent, without departing from the scope of protection defined by the appended claims.
