Abstract
The micellar formation and entrapment of bacteria cell in reverse micelles were investigated by ultraviolet spectrum (UV), fluorescence spectrum, and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The hydrogen production in reverse micelles was confirmed. The Gompertz equation was employed to evaluate the hydrogen-producing behavior in reverse micellar systems. Different systems including dioctyl sulfosuccinate sodium salt (AOT)–isooctane, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)–benzene and SDS–carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) reverse micelles were analysized. The results revealed that the maximum rate of hydrogen production (Rm) was also suitable to formulate the relationship between hydrogen-producing rate and hydrogen productivity in reverse micelles.
