This study aimed to systematically investigate the effect of elevated hydrogen partial pressure on mixed culture homoacetogenesis in range 1–25 bar. Seven batch experiments were performed at different initial headspace pressures, i.e., 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 The 15 bar showed highest gas uptake rate (6.22 mol h−1L−1) volatile fatty acids synthesis (3.55 g L−1) by a final microbial consorti...
