High efficient biohydrogen production from palm oil mill effluent by two-stage dark fermentation and microbial electrolysis under thermophilic condition
<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Biohydrogen production from palm oil mill effluent by two-stage dark fermentation and microbial electrolysis was investigated under thermophilic condition. The optimum chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration and pH for dark fermentation were 66 g·L<SUP>−1</SUP> and 6.5 with a hydrogen yield of 73 mL-H<SUB>2</SUB>·gCOD<SUP>−1</SUP>. The dark fermentation effluent consisted of mainly acetate and butyrate. The optimum voltage for microbial electrolysis was 0.7 V with a hydrogen yield of 163 mL-H<SUB>2</SUB>·gCOD<SUP>−1</SUP>. The hydrogen yield of continuous two-stage dark fermentation and microbial electrolysis was 236 mL-H<SUB>2</SUB>·gCOD<SUP>−1</SUP> with a hydrogen production rate of 7.81 L·L<SUP>−1</SUP>·d<SUP>−1</SUP>. The hydrogen yield was 3 times increased when compared with dark fermentation alone. <I>Thermoanaerobacterium</I> sp. was dominated in the dark fermentation stage while <I>Geobacter</I> sp. and <I>Desulfovibrio</I> sp. dominated in the microbial electrolysis cell stage. Two-stage dark fermentation and microbial electrolysis under thermophilic condition is a highly promising option to maximize the conversion of palm oil mill effluent into biohydrogen.</P> <P><B>Highlights</B></P> <P> <UL> <LI> The two-stage fermentation and microbial electrolysis were investigated for biohydrogen production. </LI> <LI> H<SUB>2</SUB> yield of 236 mL-H<SUB>2</SUB>·gCOD<SUP>−1</SUP> was achieved from two-stage biohydrogen processes. </LI> <LI> COD removal of 86% was achieved from two-stage biohydrogen processes. </LI> <LI> The overall energy yield of 4.48 kJ·gCOD<SUP>−1</SUP> was achieved in the two-stage biohydrogen processes. </LI> <LI> The hydrogen yield was 3 times increased when compared with dark fermentation alone. </LI> </UL> </P>
