Article Synopsis
- Sugars from thermochemical pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass can be used for hydrogen production, but weak acids and furan derivatives present are toxic to bacteria.
- The study focused on the hydrogen production capabilities of Enterobacter LBTM2 using different dilutions of synthetic and sugarcane bagasse hydrolysates, assessing how weak acids affect bacterial metabolism and the impact of detoxification methods.
- The best hydrogen yield was achieved with diluted synthetic hydrolysate, and while acetic acid inhibited growth, adding activated carbon significantly improved hydrogen production from sugarcane bagasse.
