Popis: | In this work, an integrated enzymatic hydrolysis and dark–photo fermentation were employed to enhance the performance of H 2 production from starch feedstock. The starch feedstock was first hydrolyzed in sequencing batch reactor containing indigenous starch hydrolytic bacterium Caldimonas taiwanensis On1, producing reducing sugar at a yield and rate of 0.5 g reducing sugar/g starch and 1.17 g reducing sugar/h/L, respectively, under the optimal condition of pH 7.0, 55 °C and 1.0 vvm (air volume per reactor volume per minute) aeration rate. The hydrolyzed starch was continuously introduced to dark fermentation bioreactor, where the hydrolysate was converted to H 2 at a rate of 0.22 L/h/L by Clostridium butyricum CGS2 at pH 5.8–6.0, 37 °C and 12 h HRT. The resulting effluent from dark fermentation became the influent of continuous photo H 2 production process inoculated with Rhodopseudomonas palustris WP3-5 under the condition of 35 °C, 100 W/m 2 irradiation, pH 7.0 and 48 h HRT. Combining enzymatic hydrolysis, dark fermentation and photo fermentation led to a marked improvement of overall H 2 yield (up to 16.1 mmol H 2 /g COD or 3.09 mol H 2 /mol glucose) and COD removal efficiency (ca. 54.3%), suggesting the potential of using the proposed integrated process for efficient and high-yield bioH 2 production from starch feedstock. |
