Fermentative Hydrogen Production From Wastewater and Solid Wastes by Mixed Cultures
Chenlin Li,Herbert H. P. Fang +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, over 160 publications related to fermentative hydrogen production from wastewater and solid wastes by mixed cultures are compiled and analyzed, including pre-treatment conditions for screening hydrogen-producing bacteria from anaerobic sludge or soil, and the process and performance parameters for (2) single substrates in synthetic wastewaters, (3) actual wastewater, and (4) solid wastes.

Mixed culture biotechnology for bioenergy production
TL;DR: Three example processes are briefly discussed in this paper: anaerobic digestion aimed at the production of methane-containing biogas, mixed culture fermentation for theproduction of solvents or biohydrogen, and a two-step process for theProduction of polyhydroxyalkanoates.

Waste to bioproduct conversion with undefined mixed cultures: the carboxylate platform
TL;DR: To develop the carboxylate platform into an important system within biorefineries, it must understand the kinetic and thermodynamic possibilities of anaerobic pathways, understand the ecological principles underlying pathway alternatives, and develop superior separation technologies.

Continuous dark fermentative hydrogen production by mesophilic microflora: principles and progress
TL;DR: Of the reactor types investigated, while granules have the best performance with soluble substrate, for particulate feedstock biofilm reactors or continuous stirred tank reactors, a second stage is required to utilise the fermentation end products which, when cost-effective reactors are developed, may be photofermentation or microbial fuel cell technologies.

Life at high temperatures
TL;DR: Water environments with temperatures up to and above boiling are commonly found in association with geothermal activity, and only bacteria are found, while thermophilic organisms and their enzymes have many potential biotechnological uses, and extensive research on industrial applications is under way.

Life at High Temperatures: Evolutionary, ecological, and biochemical significance of organisms living in hot springs is discussed
TL;DR: The time is now ripe for a concerted attack on the evolutionary, ecological, and molecular aspects of life at high temperatures, since hot springs provide nearly ideal ecosystems for study, since they are natural environments of great antiquity and relative constancy.

pH influence on acidogenic dissimilation of glucose in an anaerobic digestor
TL;DR: In this article, the acidogenic dissimilation at 30°C of a 1% glucose containing medium (C-limited), the maximum specific growth rate and product distribution, was studied over the pH range from 4.5 to 7.9.
