![عکس صفحه اول مقاله: Effect of changing temperature on anaerobic hydrogen production and microbial community composition in an open-mixed culture bioreactor Effect of changing temperature on anaerobic hydrogen production and microbial community composition in an open-mixed culture bioreactor](/preview/png/1276690.png)
The temperature effect (37–65 °C) on H2 production from glucose in an open-mixed culture bioreactor using an enrichment culture from a hot spring was studied. The dynamics of microbial communities was investigated by polymerase chain reaction-denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (PCR-DGGE). At 45 and 60 °C the H2 production was the highest i.e. 1.71 and 0.85 mol H2/mol glucose, respectively. No H2 was produced at temperatures 50 and 55 °C. At 37–45 °C, H2 production was produced by butyrate type fermentation while fermentation mechanism changed to ethanol type at 60 °C. Clostridium species were dominant at 37–45 °C while at 50–55 °C and 60 °C the culture was dominated by Bacillus coagulans and Thermoanaerobacterium, respectively. In the presence of B. Coagulans the metabolism was directed to lactate production. The results show that the mixed culture had two optima for H2 production and that the microbial communities and metabolic patterns promptly changed according to changing temperatures.
