Rheological characterisation of municipal sludge: A review

TL;DR: A review of the recent experimental works is provided in order to develop a reliable characterization technique for measuring the important properties of sludge such as viscosity, yield stress, thixotropy, and viscoelasticity and to better understand the impact of solids concentrations, temperature, and water content on these properties.

Fermentative hydrogen production in batch experiments using lactose, cheese whey and glucose: Influence of initial substrate concentration and pH

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of initial pH (3.88-8.12) and initial substrate concentration (0.86-29.14g/L) on both hydrogen molar yield (HMY) and volumetric H 2 production rate (VHPR) was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kinetic models for fermentative hydrogen production: A review

TL;DR: It was showed that the modified Gompertz model was widely used to describe the progress of a batch fermentative hydrogen production process, while the Monod model was widespread used to describes the effects of substrate concentration on the rates of substrate degradation, hydrogen-producing bacteria growth and hydrogen production.
Journal ArticleDOI

An MEC-MFC-coupled system for biohydrogen production from acetate.

TL;DR: In this article, an MEC-MFC-coupled system for bio-hydrogen production from acetate, in which hydrogen was produced in a MEC and extra power was supplied by an MFC, was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Response of anaerobic granular sludge to single-wall carbon nanotube exposure.

TL;DR: The response of methanogenic sludge exposed to SWCNTs in anaerobic digestion process was investigated and results show that SWC NTs, at a concentration up to 1000 mg/L, had no significant impact on the maximum methane yield.

Standard methods for the examination of water and wastewater

TL;DR: The most widely read reference in the water industry, Water Industry Reference as discussed by the authors, is a comprehensive reference tool for water analysis methods that covers all aspects of USEPA-approved water analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling of the Bacterial Growth Curve

TL;DR: Several sigmoidal functions (logistic, Gompertz, Richards, Schnute, and Stannard) were compared to describe a bacterial growth curve by using the model of Schnutes, which is a comprehensive model, encompassing all other models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biohydrogen production: prospects and limitations to practical application

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the hydrogen production rates of various bio-hydrogen systems by first standardizing the units of hydrogen production and then calculating the size of biohydrogen system that would be required to power proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells of various sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feasibility of biological hydrogen production from organic fraction of municipal solid waste

TL;DR: In this article, a simple model developed from the Gompertz equation was used to estimate the hydrogen production potential and rate from organic municipal solid waste (OFMSW) and two seed microorganisms, namely heat-pretreated digested sludge and hydrogen-producing bacteria enriched from soybean-meal silo.
