Abstract
⺠A new method for propionic acid-enriched VFA fermentation was reported. ⺠The propionic acid percentage after optimization was much higher than that reported previously. ⺠The lactic acid from the first stage was found to be the substrate for propionic acid production in the second stage. ⺠Adding food waste to the pre-fermentation system of sludge improved lactic acid production due to the synergistic effect. ⺠The propionic acid-enriched VFA as supplementary carbon for BNR was observed to promote its performance.
