Towards PHA Production from Wastes: The Bioconversion Potential of Different Activated Sludge and Food Industry Wastes into VFAs Through Acidogenic Fermentation
نویسندگان
چکیده
Acidogenic fermentation of wastes produces volatile fatty acid (VFA)-rich streams that can be used as low-cost carbon sources for polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production. In this study, an inoculum collected from anaerobic reactor a municipal WWTP was conditioned to suppress methanogenic activity. The heat-shock conditioning method the proved more efficient than and alkaline methods methanogens inhibition. Then, pre-conditioned determine acidogenic potential different wastes: three waste activated sludge (WAS) samples generated at retention times (SRTs, 2, 7 14 days), olive mill wastewater (OMW), glycerol, apple pomace (AP) winterization oil cake (WOC). Batch tests were performed in quintuplicate 37 °C pH 7. A higher degree acidification observed high-rate (2 days SRT) (69%), followed by (OMW) (43%), while lowest glycerol (16%). results (WOC) interestingly elucidated high content propionic with odd-to-even ratio (0.86) after fermentation. Feeding VFA profile obtained WOC into PHA production system led significant 0.64 g g?1 C 30% polyhydrobutyrate (PHB) 69% polyhydroxyvalerate (PHV) monomeric units HB-co-HV, decoupling need related source co-polymer

Fermentative Hydrogen Production from Food-industry Wastes
Τhis study focuses on the exploitation of food-industry wastes as a source for hydrogen production. The wastes which were used were out of date solid baby foods at seven different flavors (solid wastes) and a glucose-based syrup (liquid waste). Preliminary batch hydrogen experiments at mesophilic conditions and initial carbohydrates concentration of 5 g/L were performed to assess the hydrogen p...

متن کاملNovel insight into the relationship between organic substrate composition and volatile fatty acids distribution in acidogenic co-fermentation
BACKGROUND Co-fermentation is an attractive technology for improving volatile fatty acids (VFAs) production by treatment of solid organic wastes. However, it remains unclear how the composition of different organic matters in solid waste influences the VFAs distribution, microbial community structure, and metabolic pathway during acidogenic co-fermentation. In this study, different organic wast...
متن کاملBiogas production potential from cotton wastes
The anaerobic treatability and methane generation potential of three different cotton wastes namely, cotton stalks, cotton seed hull and cotton oil cake were determined in batch reactors. In addition, the effects of nutrient and trace metal supplementation were also investigated. To this purpose biochemical methane potential (BMP) experiments were performed for two different waste concentration...
