To enhance energy production efficiency (EPE) from microalgae Chlorella pyrenoidosa (CP), cassava starch (CS) was mixed with CP to optimise the carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratio and facilitate efficient dark hydrogen fermentation, followed by photo hydrogen fermentation and methanogenesis. Steam...

16s rRNA gene sequence analysis is applied in the semi-continuous fermentation of Chlorella pyrenoidosa to monitor changes in the microbial community of HPB (hydrogen-producing bacteria). The microbial community of HPB on the 4th day is mainly composed of one genus (Clostridium) including one...

Fermentative hydrogen production from biomass wastes is a promising technology combining waste treatment and clean fuel production. Biomass wastes have various types and components, while the fundamental fermentation reactions involve monosaccharides and amino acids. In this study, typical...

Water hyacinth, as waste biomass, can potentially replace fossil fuels and address pressing issues of energy shortage and serious environmental pollution. In this study, microwave-assisted dilute acid pretreatment was proposed to enhance the enzymatic saccharification of water hyacinth for...
