Hydrogen production by thermophilic fermentation
(2011) p.137-159- Abstract
- Of the many ways hydrogen can be produced, this chapter focuses on biological hydrogen production
12 by thermophilic bacteria and archaea in dark fermentations. The thermophiles are held as promising candidates
13 for a cost-effective fermentation process, because of their relatively high yields and broad substrate palette. Yet
14 many challenges remain to be faced, including improving productivity, tolerance to high osmolality and growth
15 inhibitors, and reactor configuration. This review consolidates current insights in the quest for high yields and
16 productivities within thermophilic hydrogen production. Important is to understand how environmental
17 parameters affect the redox-... (More) - Of the many ways hydrogen can be produced, this chapter focuses on biological hydrogen production
