Biohydrogen production: prospects and limitations to practical application

TLDR
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.

A new high‐energy density hydrogen carrier—carbohydrate—might be better than methanol

TL;DR: In this article, a cell-free synthetic enzymatic pathway biotransformation (SyPaB) can 100% selectively convert carbohydrate and water to high-purity hydrogen and carbon dioxide under modest reaction conditions (below water boiling temperature and atmospheric pressure).

The chemostat study of metabolic distribution in extreme-thermophilic (70°C) mixed culture fermentation.

TL;DR: Investigation of the effects of pH, hydrogen partial pressure (PH2), and influent glucose concentration on the metabolic distribution in chemostat showed that acetate, ethanol, and hydrogen were the main metabolites in extreme-thermophilic mixed culture fermentation (MCF) process.

Development and calibration of a model for biohydrogen production from organic waste

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to develop and calibrate a mathematical model for the prediction of hydrogen production on the basis of the results obtained from a laboratory scale experimental study using source-selected organic waste and provide useful information concerning the role of the kinetic constants in the analysis of a fermentative H2 production process from organic wastes.
