Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
In this paper, the influence of fermentation pH and substrate composition (composite chemical wastewater as primary carbon source) on molecular H 2 production was studied in batch experiments using sequentially pretreated [heat-shock (100 ∘ C ; 2h) and acid (pH 3; 24h)] anaerobic mixed consortia as inoculum.
