Abstract: | Sugars released from lignocellulose biomass are a promising substrate for biohydrogen production. This study evaluates the effect of pH controlled between 4.0 and 7.5 on continuous dark-fermentative H2 production from the mixture of cellobiose, xylose and arabinose. High hydrogen production rate was obtained for pH values between 6.0 and 7.0 with a maximum of 7.41 ± 0.16 L/L-d at pH 7.0. On the other hand, the highest H2 yields of around 1.74 ± 0.02 mol/molconsumed were obtained at pH 4.5, 5.0 and 6.0. Cellobiose was completely utilized in nearly the entire pH range, while the highest consumption of xylose and arabinose was obtained at pH 6.0 and 7.0, respectively. It shows the challenges in selecting optimum pH for fermentation of mixed sugars. Significant impact of pH conditions on the microbial structure was observed. Between pH 4.0 and 7.0 Clostridium genus dominated the consortium, while above pH 7.0 relative abundance of Bacillus genus increased significantly. |
