Bacterial bioaugmentation for improving methane and hydrogen production from microalgae
BACKGROUND The recalcitrant cell walls of microalgae may limit their digestibility for bioenergy production. Considering that cellulose contributes to the cell wall recalcitrance of the microalgae Chlorella vulgaris, this study investigated bioaugmentation with a cellulolytic and hydrogenogenic bacterium, Clostridium thermocellum, at different inoculum ratios as a possible method to improve CH4...
متن کاملChallenges and opportunities for hydrogen production from microalgae
The global population is predicted to increase from ~7.3 billion to over 9 billion people by 2050. Together with rising economic growth, this is forecast to result in a 50% increase in fuel demand, which will have to be met while reducing carbon dioxide (CO2 ) emissions by 50-80% to maintain social, political, energy and climate security. This tension between rising fuel demand and the requirem...
متن کاملBioaugmentation of Anaerobic Sludge with Syntrophomonas zehnderi as a Prospect for Enhanced Methane Production from Oleate
Bioaugmentation of anaerobic sludge with long-chain fatty acids (LCFA)-degrading bacteria can be a feasible strategy to enhance methane production from LCFA. This hypothesis was studied in batch assays with Syntrophomonas zehnderi as bioaugmenting strain. This bacterium is able to degrade a wide range of saturated and unsaturated LCFA, and its presence has been reported in several oleate-fed bi...
متن کاملMethane production from oleate: assessing the bioaugmentation potential of Syntrophomonas zehnderi.
The potential for improving long-chain fatty acids (LCFA) conversion to methane was evaluated by bioaugmenting a non-acclimated anaerobic granular sludge with Syntrophomonas zehnderi. Batch bioaugmentation assays were performed with and without the solid microcarrier sepiolite, using 1 mM oleate as sole carbon and energy source. When S. zehnderi was added to the anaerobic sludge methane product...
متن کاملProduction of Hydrobromic Acid from Bromine and Methane for Hydrogen Production
A cooperative program between Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) and the SRT Group was recently begun to advance the development of a chemical process to produce hydrobromic acid from bromine and methane. The purpose of the SNL program is to provide fundamental reaction kinetics information that will constitute the basis for system engineering by SRT. The SNL activities consist of computational...
