Bio-Hydrogen Production from Cheese Whey by Dark Fermentation
This paper focuses on the production of bio-hydrogen by dark fermentation of de-proteinized (by membrane ultra-filtration) cheese whey, an abundant waste stream of the food industry.

ABSTRACT Sustainable chemical production from C1 gaseous substrates, such as syngas or CO2/H2, can be achieved through gas fermentation. In gas fermentation, acetogenic bacteria are able to utilize oxidized inorganic carbon sources as the sole carbon source and electron acceptor, while reduced inorganic species are used as the electron donor ...

Acetate Shock Loads Enhance CO Uptake Rates of Anaerobic Microbiomes
Pyrolysis of lignocellulosic biomass yields syngas and an acetate‐rich wastewater. This study examined high acetate levels during syngas co‐fermentation by anaerobic microbiomes at different pHs and temperatures. Microbiomes converted syngas at 64 g/L acetate and pH 5.5. Acetate supplementation increased CO conversion rates and altered product spectrum

Clostridium acetobutylicum is a strict anaerobe which exhibits two distinct steps in its metabolic network. In the first step, sugars are oxidized to organic acids (acetic and butyric). This is accompanied with growth.

Physiological Events in Clostridium acetobutylicum during the Shift from Acidogenesis to Solventogenesis in Continuous Culture and Presentation of a Model for Shift Induction [PDF]
The pH of continuous cultures of Clostridium acetobutylicum growing at pH 5.6 was allowed to decrease to 4.3 after acid production and thereby to shift the cultures from acetate and butyrate to acetone and butanol formation. Several parameters were determined during the shift.

HYDROGEN PRODUCTION AND PERFORMANCE OF ANAEROBIC FIXED-BED REACTORS USING THREE SUPPORT ARRANGEMENTS FROM CASSAVA STARCH WASTEWATER [PDF]
Fixed-bed reactors have been considered promise alternatives for hydrogen production due to their simple construction and increase in the biomass retention.

Adaptive laboratory evolution was used in this study to improve Clostridium autoethanogenum's growth on CO2 and H2. The growth rate improved using various methods, where one using a 2% CO gas mixture retained the most ethanol produciton – Evolved D. Under the same CO2 and H2 chemostat conditions, no changes in rates and titres were found between the ...

Clostridium acetobutylicum is able to switch from acidogenic growth to solventogenic growth. We used phosphate-limited continuous cultures that established acidogenic growth at pH 5.8 and solventogenic growth at pH 4.5.

Elucidation of the roles of adhE1 and adhE2 in the primary metabolism of Clostridium acetobutylicum by combining in-frame gene deletion and a quantitative system-scale approach [PDF]
Background: Clostridium acetobutylicum possesses two homologous adhE genes, adhE1 and adhE2, which have been proposed to be responsible for butanol production in solventogenic and alcohologenic cultures, respectively.

In-depth knowledge of cell metabolism and nutrient uptake mechanisms can lead to the development of a tool for improving acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) fermentation performance and help to overcome bottlenecks in the process, such as the high cost of ...
