Effect of Elevated Eydrogen Partial Pressure on Mixed Culture Homoacetogenesis
This study aimed to systematically investigate the effect of elevated hydrogen partial pressure on mixed culture homoacetogenesis in the range of 1–25 bar. Seven batch experiments were performed at different initial headspace pressures, i.e., 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 bar. The 15 bar batch showed...

| Résumé: | This study aimed to systematically investigate the effect of elevated hydrogen partial pressure on mixed culture homoacetogenesis in the range of 1–25 bar. Seven batch experiments were performed at different initial headspace pressures, i.e., 1, 3, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 bar. The 15 bar batch showed the highest gas uptake rate (6.22 mol h−1L−1) and volatile fatty acids synthesis (3.55 g L−1) by a final microbial consortium that was found to be largely reduced in complexity compared to the original inoculum culture and dominated by members of the Pseudomonadaceae and Clostridiaceae. Product distribution shifted from acetate to C3-C5 acids at a pressure above 15 bar. 15 bar was found to be the optimum elevated pressure for the used mixed culture fermentation medium and biodiversity used in this study, and pressure above 15 bar inhibited the microbial consortia and resulted in lowered gas uptake rate and product synthesis. |
