Improvement of Biohydrogen Production with Novel Augmentation Strategy Using Different Organic Residues

https://doi.org/10.15518/isjaee.2019.34-36.026-040

Abstract

Biohydrogen has been regarded as carbon neutral fuel. Thus it possesses tremendous potential in energy sector. The present study deals with the potentiality of bio-augmented facultative anaerobic bacteria with obligate anaerobe for the improvement of H2 production. The co-culture strategy of Klebsellia pneumoniae and Clostridium acetobutylicum improved hydrogen yield by 37% and 18% respectively as compared to individual organism. COD removal efficiency was also observed higher in case of co-culture. Maximum H2 yield by this augmented system using cane molasses, starchy wastewater and distillery effluent were 9.47, 8.72 and 7.78 mol H2 kg-1 COD reduced respectively. The COD removal efficiency using different organic residues were in the range of 50–70%. Highest H2 production rate of 1125, 642 and 790 mL L-1 h-1 were observed by using cane molasses, starchy wastewater and distillery effluent respectively in CSTR. So, bio-augmented system could be helpful in realizing the goal of “waste to energy” concept.
