• Biological hydrogen production from herbal wastewater.
• Effect of system optimizing conditions such as pH, Temperature, Wastewater concentration.
• Effect of thermophillic temperature on herbal wastewater treatment.
• SEM analysis for slaughterhouse sludge.
The study evaluates the biohydrogen production from herbal wastewater as the substrate by the enriched mixed slaughterhouse sludge as the seed source. In the following experiments, batch-fermentations are carried out with the optimum substrate concentrations, fermentation pH and fermentation temperature to observe the effects of H2 production, hydrogen yield and other fermentation end products at different conditions. The hydrogen production is increased as substrate concentration increased up to 8 g COD/L WW, but drastically decreased at 10 g COD/L WW. When the pH of fermentation is controlled to 6.5, a maximum amount of hydrogen yield could be obtained. The hydrogen production is maximum at 50 °C (930 ± 30 mL/L WW) compared to 30 °C (436 ± 16 mL/L WW). Acid-forming pathway with butyric acid as a major metabolite dominated the metabolic flow during the hydrogen production. The experimental results indicated that effective hydrogen production from the herbal wastewater could be obtained by thermophilic acidogenesis at proper operational conditions.
