Project description:Effect of decreasing hydraulic retention time of anaerobic membrane bioreactor in reactor performance and the removal of bacterial pathogens
Project description:Background: Biological conversion of the surplus of renewable electricity to CH4 could support energy storage and strengthen the power grid. Biological methanation (BM) is closely linked to the activity of biogas-producing bacterial community and methanogenic Archaea in particular. During reactor operations, the microbiome is often subject to various changes whereby the microorganisms are challenged to adapt to the new conditions. In this study, a hydrogenotrophic-adapted microbial community in a laboratory-scale BM fermenter was monitored for its pH, gas production, conversion yields and composition. To investigate the robustness of BM regarding power oscillations, the biogas microbiome was exposed to five H2 starvations patterns for several hours.
