The effects of three common titanate photocatalysts (TPC) on the photo fermentation biohydrogen production (PFHP) from corn stover were studied in this paper. Compared with CaTiO and BaTiO, the experimental group with the addition of MgTiO showed stronger potential for PFHP, the maximum hydrogen yield of 344 mL (68.8 mL/g TS) was obtained at 3 g/L MgTiO, increased by 48.

The structure of the plate-heat transfer type for bio-methanol reforming has been designed and optimized with the application parameters of hydrogen production capacity, hydrogen production rate, bio-methanol conversion rate, volume limitation. Results showed the catalyst particle size has little influence when it less than 0.

The maximal cumulative hydrogen yield (CHY) of 82.37 mL/g was obtained under full decompression to 0.

The results showed that the headspace pressure could significantly affect the performance of PFHP. With the decrease in the reactor headspace pressure (100 kPa-10 kPa), cumulative biohydrogen production firstincreased and then decreased, the maximum hydrogen yield of 546.
