Enhancement of biohydrogen production by photo-fermentation of corn stover via visible light catalyzed titanium dioxide/activated carbon fiber. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2024; 399:130459. [PMID: 38408503 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2024.130459] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/22/2023] [Revised: 02/14/2024] [Accepted: 02/14/2024] [Indexed: 02/28/2024]
Abstract
In this study, titanium dioxide/activated carbon fiber (TiO2/ACF) was synthesized by liquid-phase deposition method and the effect of TiO2/ACF on the performance of photo-fermentation biohydrogen production (PFHP) from corn stover under visible light catalysis was discussed. Results show the maximum cumulative hydrogen yield (CHY) obtained under the optimal conditions was 74.0 ± 1.3 mL/g TS with TiO2/ACF addition of 100 mg/L, which was twice that without TiO2/ACF addition (36.9 ± 1.0 mL/g TS). Initial pH value had the most significant effect on CHY. The addition of TiO2/ACF promoted the metabolic pathway of nitrogenase to reduce H+ produced by consuming acetic acid and butyric acid to hydrogen, and also shortened the photo-fermentation period. By scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis, the morphology and phase structure of TiO2/ACF after PFHP did not change significantly. This study laid the foundation for the reuse of TiO2 and its practical application in PFHP.

Abstract
In tropical regions, the viability of outdoor photo-fermentative biohydrogen production faces challenges arising from elevated temperatures and varying light intensity. This research aimed to explore how high temperatures and outdoor environments impact both biohydrogen production and the growth of purple non-sulfur bacteria. Our findings revealed the potential of Rhodopseudomonas spp. as a robust outdoor hydrogen-producing bacteria, demonstrating its capacity to thrive and generate biohydrogen even at 40 °C and under fluctuating outdoor conditions. Rhodopseudomonas harwoodiae NM3/1-2 produced the highest cumulative biohydrogen of 223 mL/L under anaerobic light conditions at 40 °C, while Rhodopseudomonas harwoodiae 2M had the highest dry cell weight of 2.93 g/L. However, R. harwoodiae NM3/1-2 demonstrated the highest dry cell weight of 3.99 g/L and Rhodopseudomonas pentothenatexigens KKU-SN1/1 exhibited the highest cumulative biohydrogen production of 400 mL/L when grown outdoors. In addition, the outdoor enhancement of biohydrogen production was achieved through the utilization of a cluster of ten bioreactors system. The outcomes demonstrated a notable improvement in biohydrogen production efficiency, marked by the highest daily biohydrogen production of 493 mL/L d by R. pentothenatexigens KKU-SN1/1. Significantly, the highest biohydrogen production rate was noted to be 17 times greater than that observed in conventional batch production methods. This study is the first to utilize R. pentothenatexigens and R. harwoodiae for sustained biohydrogen production at high temperatures and in outdoor conditions over an extended operational period. The successful utilization of a clustered system of ten bioreactors demonstrates potential to scale-up for industrial biohydrogen production.

Abstract
Hydrogen production from biological processes has been hailed as a promising strategy for generating sustainable energy. Fermentative hydrogen production processes such as dark and photofermentation are considered more sustainable and economical than other biological methods such as biophotolysis. However, these methods have constraints such as low hydrogen yield and conversion efficiency, so practical implementations still need to be made. The present review provides an assessment and feasibility of producing biohydrogen through dark and photofermentation techniques utilizing various lignocellulosic biomass wastes as substrates. Furthermore, this review includes information about the strategies to increase the productivity rate of biohydrogen in an eco-friendly and sustainable manner, like integration of dark and photofermentation techniques, pretreatment of biomass, genetic modification of microorganisms, and application of nanoadditives.

Abstract
The primary parts of corn stalks are the leaves and the stems, which comprise the cortex and the pith. Corn has long been cultivated as an grain crops, and now it is a primary global source of sugar, ethanol, and biomass-generated energy. Even though increasing the sugar content in the stalk is an important breeding goal, progress has been modest in many breeding researchers. Accumulation is the gradual rise in quantity when new additions are made. The challenging characteristics of such sugar content in corn stalks are below the protein, bio-economy, and mechanical injury. Hence, in this research, plant water-content-enabled micro-Ribonucleic acids (PWC-miRNAs) were designed to increase the sugar content in corn stalks following an accumulation rule. High-throughput sequencing of the transcriptome, short RNAs, and coding RNAs was performed here; leaf and stem degradation from two early-maturing Corn genotypes revealed new information on miRNA-associated gene regulation in corn during the sucrose accumulation process. For sugar content in corn stalk, PWC-miRNAs were used to establish the application of the accumulation rule for data-processing monitoring throughout. Through simulation, management, and monitoring, the condition is accurately predicted, providing a new scientific and technological means to improve the efficiency of the construction of sugar content in corn stalks. The experimental analysis of PWC-miRNAs outperforms sugar content in terms of performance, accuracy, prediction ratio, and evaluation. This study aims to provide a framework for increasing the sugar content of corn stalk.

Abstract
Lignocellulosic materials (LCM) have garnered attention as feedstocks for second-generation biofuels and platform chemicals. With an estimated annual production of nearly 200 billion tons, LCM represent an abundant source of clean, renewable, and sustainable carbon that can be funneled to numerous biofuels and platform chemicals by sustainable microbial bioprocessing. However, the low bioavailability of LCM due to the recalcitrant nature of plant cell components, the complexity and compositional heterogeneity of LCM monomers, and the limited metabolic flexibility of wild-type product-forming microorganisms to simultaneously utilize various LCM monomers are major roadblocks. Several innovative strategies have been proposed recently to counter these issues and expedite the widespread commercialization of biorefineries using LCM as feedstocks. Herein, we critically summarize the recent advances in the biological valorization of LCM to value-added products. The review focuses on the progress achieved in the development of strategies that boost efficiency indicators such as yield and selectivity, minimize carbon losses via integrated biorefinery concepts, facilitate carbon co-metabolism and carbon-flux redirection towards targeted products using recently engineered microorganisms, and address specific product-related challenges, to provide perspectives on future research needs and developments. The strategies and views presented here could guide future studies in developing feasible and economically sustainable LCM-based biorefineries as a crucial node in achieving carbon neutrality.

Abstract
Artificial intervention combined with stress acclimation was used to screen a heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrifying (HN-AD) bacterial, strain Rhodococcus SY24, resistant to linear alkylbenzenesulfonic acid (LAS) stress. When LAS was<15 mg/L, strain SY24 performed better cell growth and carbon source metabolism activity. The maximum nitrification and denitrification rates of SY24 under LAS stress could reach 1.18 mg/L/h and 1.05 mg/L/h, respectively, which were 13.80 % and 8.81 % higher than those of the original strain CPZ24. Higher LAS tolerance was seen in the functional genes (amoA, nxrA, napA, narG, nirK, nirS, norB, and nosZ). Response surface modeling revealed that 2 mg/L LAS, sodium succinate as a carbon source, 190 rams, and carbon/nitrogen 11 were the ideal culture conditions for SY24 to nitrogen removal under the LAS environment. This study offered a new screening strategy for the functional species, and strain SY24 showed significant LAS tolerance and HN-AD potential.

Abstract
Transposons are mobile genetic elements that can give rise to gene mutation and genome rearrangement. Due to their mobility, transposons have been exploited as genetic tools for modification of plants, animals, and microbes. Although a plethora of reviews have summarized families of transposons, the transposons from fermentation bacteria have not been systematically documented, which thereby constrain the exploitation for metabolic engineering and synthetic biology purposes. In this review, we summarize the transposons from the most used fermentation bacteria including Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtilis, Lactococcus lactis, Corynebacterium glutamicum, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Zymomonas mobilis by literature retrieval and data mining from GenBank and KEGG. We also outline the state-of-the-art advances in basic research and industrial applications especially when allied with other genetic tools. Overall, this review aims to provide valuable insights for transposon-mediated strain improvement. KEY POINTS: • The transposons from the most-used fermentation bacteria are systematically summarized. • The applications of transposons in strain improvement are comprehensively reviewed.

Abstract
Clean energy like hydrogen can be a promising strategy to solve problems of global warming. Photo-fermentation (PF) is an attractive technology for producing biohydrogen from various biowastes cost-effectively and environmentally friendly. However, challenges of low light conversion efficiency and small yields of biohydrogen production still limit its application. Thus, advanced strategies have been investigated to enhance photo-fermentative biohydrogen production. This review discusses advanced technologies that show positive outcomes in improving biohydrogen production by PF, including the following. Firstly, genetic engineering enhances light transfer efficiency, change the activity of enzymes, and improves the content of ATP, ammonium and antibiotic tolerance of photosynthetic bacteria. Secondly, immobilization technology is refined. Thirdly, nanotechnology makes great strides as a scientific technique and fourthly, integration of dark and photo-fermentation technology is possible. Some suggestions for further studies to achieve high levels of efficiency of photo-fermentative biohydrogen production are mentioned in this paper.

Abstract
The present investigation employed transposon technology to enhance the degradation of recalcitrant petroleum hydrocarbons present in petroleum oil sludge by using biosurfactant hyper-producing strain Enterobacter xiangfangensis STP-3. Out of 2500 transposon induced mutants, mutants M257E.xiangfangensis and M916E.xiangfangensis hyper-produce biocatalytic lipoprotein biosurfactant by1.98 and 2.34 fold higher than wild-type strain. Transposon induced mutation also modified the amino acid composition which improved the hydrophobicity and thermal stability of the biosurfactants produced by mutants, compared to the wild-type biosurfactant. GC-MS and LC-MS-MS revealed that biosurfactants have pentameric lipid moiety and esterase as protein moiety. Increased biosurfactant hydrophobicity and yield by the mutants resulted in the enhanced bioavailability of petroleum hydrocarbons, thereby mutants M257E.xiangfangensis and M916E.xiangfangensis demonstrated better petroleum oil sludge degradation by 82% and 88% respectively, than wild-type (72%). Disrupted genes vgr G and pgm M in M257E.xiangfangensis and M916E.xiangfangensis respectively hyper-produce biosurfactant by competitive pathway inhibition and increased precursor availability mechanism. Hyper-production of biosurfactant was also validated by comparing the expression of biosynthetic genes ent E, ent F and est using qPCR. This is the first report on the application of transposon technology to hyper-produce biosurfactant for the effective bioremediation of hydrocarbon contaminated environments.

Abstract
The kinetic properties of the hydrogen yield of photosynthetic bacteria were investigated using Han-Levenspiel and modified Gompertz models to determine the effects of different zinc salts on the growth and hydrogen production of the photosynthetic bacterium HAU-M1. Inorganic zinc salts (zinc standard solution and zinc sulfate) inhibited bacterial growth by 1-4-fold higher than organic zinc salts (zinc lactate and zinc gluconate). Among these four zinc salts, 5 mg/L zinc lactate displayed the weakest inhibition performance. This compound increased cumulative hydrogen production by approximately 57.81% (80.44 mL/g) and maximum hydrogen production rate by 58.27% (3.43 mL/[g·h]). The Han-Levenspiel model with parameters m > n > 0 indicated that the addition of zinc salts influenced the hydrogen production process of the bacterium in a noncompetitive manner. Compared with the inorganic zinc, the organic zinc salts were more suitable as exogenous zinc supplements to promote bacterial growth and its hydrogen production.

Abstract
The production of hydrogen, its separation, and storage for use as a primary source of energy is an important component of the green energy economy of the world. Hydrogen is a potential non-carbon-based energy source, which is gradually replacing the dependency on fossil fuels. It is anticipated that as the alternative fuel since hydrogen can be produced from green and clean sources. The evolution of hydrogen from renewable and non-renewable sources by various technologies has now gained tremendous research and industrial interest. The most appropriate methods for hydrogen generation involve the direct conversion of solar energy, exploitation of solar and wind energy for the electrolysis of water, besides conversion of fuel and biomass. To produce cleaner hydrogen and its separation from the chemical impurities is crucial and several methods including photobiological, photoelectrochemical, electrochemical, photocatalytic, thermochemical, thermolysis, and steam gasification have been used. The diverse types of membranes along with the pressure gas swing adsorption technique is another technique used to separate hydrogen, but the storage of hydrogen in an inexpensive, safe, compact, and environmentally friendly manner is one of the major concerns contributing to the country's economy. Apart from the countless advantages, storage and handling of hydrogen is a serious concern. Owing to its high inflammability, enough safety measures should be adopted during its production and storage as a fuel. It is necessary to provide information regarding the production technologies, storage, and separation methods of hydrogen and the present review addresses these issues.

Abstract
Biohydrogen production by photo fermentation is an attractive clean energy production approach with less environmental pollution and higher substrate conversion. In recent years, various measures have been used to improve biohydrogen production performance, but there is a lack of systematic and comprehensive summary and analysis. Hence, the recent literatures on enhancing biohydrogen production by photo fermentation were summarized, and the functional mechanisms of enhancement strategies were explained. In this work, these measures were divided into four categories according to their roles in photo fermentation, including substrate pretreatment, bacterial modification and immobilization, additive addition, reactor design optimization. It can be concluded that the optimal enhancement conditions of each strategy were affected by substrate type, strain and process parameters. According to the results of this work, it was expected to give readers a clear understanding and provide a scientific reference of the research of photosynthetic biohydrogen production.

Microwave-assisted catalysis of water-glycerol solutions for hydrogen production over NiO/zeolite catalyst. Heliyon 2021; 7:e07557. [PMID: 34355081 PMCID: PMC8321933 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2021.e07557] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2020] [Revised: 04/29/2021] [Accepted: 07/08/2021] [Indexed: 11/29/2022] Open
Abstract
In this study, glycerol as an abundant green feedstock was used as a hydrogen source to investigate the reaction of water-glycerol solution decomposition by microwave-assisted catalytic to produce hydrogen over NiO/zeolite catalyst. The catalyst was prepared by inception wetness and then characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy diffraction X-ray (EDX), and transmission electron microscope (TEM) measurements. The conversion process of glycerol into hydrogen was performed in a fixed-bed microwave-assisted reactor. Effect of microwave power, NiO content, and feed flow rate (FFR) on glycerol conversion and hydrogen selectivity were studied. The results of XRD and EDX measurement showed that NiO crystalline exists on the catalyst sample. The particle size of NiO/zeolite was determined in the range of 30–300 nm, and the particle was found well dispersed on the zeolite surface as confirmed by TEM. Furthermore, the maximum conversion rate can achieve about 96.67 %, while the highest hydrogen production was found up to 73.5 % with the condition of 20% of NiO as an active site on natural zeolite. It was found that the NiO content of 20% gave the best glycerol conversion at the microwave power of 600 W and FFR 0.5 ml/min. Microwave-assisted catalytic irradiation of glycerol appears to be a promising candidate for the production of H2 from an aqueous glycerol solution.

Abstract
Shrub landscaping waste, derived from afforestation of city, has increased annually, making it a promising feedstock for energy production. In this work, the photo-fermentation bio-hydrogen production potential from shrub landscaping waste was evaluated. Eight kinds of shrub landscaping wastes (Photinia fraseri, Buxus megistophylla, Buxus sinica, Pittosporum tobira, Sabina Chinensis, Berberis thunbergii, Ligustrum vicaryi and Ligustrum quihoui) were selected as substrate and the photo-fermentation bio-hydrogen production process of which was optimized. Buxus megistophylla was found to be the most suitable substrate for photo-fermentation bio-hydrogen production. Moreover, the initial pH value, temperature and substrate concentration had significant influence on photo-fermentation bio-hydrogen production. The maximum cumulated hydrogen yield of Buxus megistophylla was 73.82 ± 0.06 mL/g TS under the optimal conditions of light intensity of 3000 Lux, substrate mass concentration of 21.49 g/L, temperature of 29.78 °C, inoculant amount of 25% and initial pH value of 6.78.
