<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>This study evaluated the influence of hydraulic retention time (HRT) on hydrogen (H<SUB>2</SUB>) production in anaerobic fluidized bed reactors at mesophilic (30 °C, AFBR-M) and thermophilic (55 °C, AFBR-T) temperatures. Reactors were fed sucrose-based synthetic wastewater (5000 mg chemical oxygen demand·L<SUP>−1</SUP>) in the HRT of 8, 6, 4, 2, or 1 h. H<SUB>2</SUB> production rate increased from 67.8 ± 14.8 to 194.9 ± 57.0 ml H<SUB>2</SUB>·h<SUP>−1</SUP> L<SUP>−1</SUP> (AFBR-T) and from 72.0 ± 10.0 to 344.4 ± 74.0 mL H<SUB>2</SUB>·h<SUP>−1</SUP>·l<SUP>−1</SUP> (AFBR-M) when HRT decreased from 8 to 1 h. Maximum H<SUB>2</SUB> yields for AFBR-T and AFBR-M were 1.93 ± 0.21 and 2.68 ± 0.48 mol H<SUB>2</SUB>·mol<SUP>−1</SUP> sucrose, respectively. The main metabolites were acetic acid (31.3%–41.5%) and butyric acid (10.2%–20.7%) (AFBR-M) and acetate (20.1%–39.3%) and ethanol (14.3%–29.9%) (AFBR-T). Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis profiles revealed selective enrichment of microbial populations responsible for H<SUB>2</SUB> production by the aceto-butyric route (AFBR-M) and ethanol-type fermentation (AFBR-T).</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> Effects of hydraulic retention time and temperature on H<SUB>2</SUB> production were examined. </LI> <LI> Maximum H<SUB>2</SUB> production rate was 344.4 ± 74.0 mL H<SUB>2</SUB>·h<SUP>−1</SUP>·L<SUP>−1</SUP>. </LI> <LI> Maximum H<SUB>2</SUB> yield was 2.68 ± 0.48 mol H<SUB>2</SUB>·mol<SUP>−1</SUP> sucrose. </LI> <LI> H<SUB>2</SUB> was produced by aceto-butyric route and thermophilic ethanol-type fermentation. </LI> <LI> Mesophilic H<SUB>2</SUB> production from sucrose was more efficient than thermophilic. </LI> </UL> </P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>
