METHOD FOR SUSTAINED MICROBIAL PRODUCTION OF HYDROGEN GAS IN A BIOREACTOR USING KLEBSIELLA OXYTOCA
摘要
The present invention provides a method of hydrogen production from microorganisms, wherein a bioreactor provides an environment conducive to the production of hydrogen from Klebsiella oxytoca and restrictive to the production of methane from methanogens. Klebsiella oxytoca metabolizes organic material at elevated temperatures and pH levels that are detrimental to methanogens. Particularly, the environment in the bioreactor is preferably maintained between about 3.5 and 6.0 pH. Further, the Klebsiella oxytoca metabolizes organic material in the organic feed material and produces hydrogen in substantially a 1:1 ratio with carbon dioxide.
