Abstract

The impact of continuous removal of volatile fatty acids on fermentative hydrogen production from food waste (FW)in a Continuously Stirred Tank Reactor (CSTR)was evaluated. Two experimental phases were conducted, a control phase and one in which volatile fatty acids were removed continuously from the reactor for the first time by electrodialysis (ED). Hydrogen yields were 64.7 cm³ H₂/g VS and 227.3 cm³ H₂/g VS for control phase, and ED phase respectively. Continuous removal of volatile fatty acids during fermentation not only increased H₂ yields but increased the production of volatile fatty acids (a valuable chemical feedstock)from 0.14 g/g VS to 0.34 g/g VS_.
