Biohydrogen production from biomass and industrial wastes by dark fermentation

Photoinduced Biohydrogen Production from Biomass

Photoinduced biohydrogen production systems, coupling saccharaides biomass such as sucrose, maltose, cellobiose, cellulose, or saccharides mixture hydrolysis by enzymes and glucose dehydrogenase (GDH), and hydrogen production with platinum colloid as a catalyst using the visible light-induced photosensitization of Mg chlorophyll-a (Mg Chl-a) from higher green plant or artificial chlorophyll ana...

Biohydrogen Production from Renewable Organic Wastes

Objectives • Investigate different strategies for selective growth of hydrogen-producing bacteria (e.g., heat selection and pH control, hydraulic loading) in a mixed culture environment. • Determine the biokinetics parameters of hydrogen-producing microorganisms. • Identify and quantify hydrogen-producing bacterial population in a complex microbial community background using nucleic acid based ...

Biohydrogen Production from Hydrolysates of Selected Tropical Biomass Wastes with Clostridium Butyricum

Biohydrogen production has received widespread attention from researchers in industry and academic fields. Response surface methodology (RSM) was applied to evaluate the effects of several key variables in anaerobic fermentation of glucose with Clostridium butyrium, and achieved the highest production rate and yield of hydrogen. Highest H2 yield of 2.02 mol H2/mol-glucose was achieved from 24 h...

Outlook of biohydrogen production from lignocellulosic feedstock using dark fermentation – a review

Hydrogen becomes a promising alternative energy carrier to fossil fuels since it is clean, renewable, contains high energy content and does not contribute to greenhouse effect. Therefore, using cheap or renewable resources, such as lignocellulosic materials, as the feedstock for hydrogen production, in particular, dark fermentative hydrogen production has a great potential to give major contrib...
