Purpose: Biomethane is an environment-friendly, economic, and alternative energy resource for a clean and green future. In the present study, we have evaluated the biomethanation potential of acetate-utilizing methanogenic culture (AUMC) and gelatin-enriched mixed culture (GEMC) with Clostridium acetobutylicum NCIM 2841 (GEMC-CA.) on gelatin as a sole carbon and nitrogen source. Methods: We conducted experiments for examining the specific-methanogenic activity of these cultures in the metabolic assay media containing 1% gelatin. The produced methane and consumed gelatin were quantified by standard experimental methods. Exchange metabolites produced by these cultures were qualitatively analyzed by mass spectrometry. Results: Results of our study show that the growth-associated amino acid catabolism partially or completely supported the methanogenesis of these defined cultures. AUMC and GEMC found to be suitable for enhanced methanogenic activity on gelatin but a rapid degradation of amino acid was attributed by GEMC-CA. The ammonia released from these cultures was directly proportional to gelatin degradation. Mass spectral data analysis identified some key exchange metabolites from acidogenic culture and methanogenic culture for confirming the growth-associated methanogenesis. Conclusion: The biomethanation potential of these cultures on gelatin is coupled with the Stickland reactions-directed methanogenesis in a syntrophic manner. The present study provides the importance for the development of a starter culture for the biomethanation of protein-based industrial wastes in effective ways. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
