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.

Hydrogen production by immobilized cells. III—Prolonged and stable H2 photoevolution by Rhodopseudomonas palustris in light-dark cycles

TL;DR: Considerable progress in the photobiological hydrogen production process by agar-entrapped resting cells of Rhodopseudomonas palustris in light-dark cycles was achieved by improving the substrate diffusion, by preventing a high uptake hydrogenase activity and by eliminating nitrogen starvation, which induces deleterious effects on nitrogenase function.
