Development of anaerobic immobilized-cell processes for biohydrogen production

Development of anaerobic immobilized-cell processes for biohydrogen production

Self-formation of granules or biofilms has been noted in anaerobic biohydrogen reactors, yet few underlying principles describing the phenomenon have been drawn. A major drawback of the cell immobilization is the long startup period, which generally requires a few months for the development of hydro...
