Abstract

The building of a sustainable society will require reduction of dependency on fossil fuels and lowering of the amount of pollution that is generated. Wastewater treatment is an area in which these two goals can be addressed simultaneously. As a result, there has been a paradigm shift recently, from disposing of waste to using it. There are several biological processing strategies that produce bioenergy or biochemicals while treating industrial and agricultural wastewater, including methanogenic anaerobic digestion, biological hydrogen production, microbial fuel cells and fermentation for production of valuable products. However, there are also scientific and technical barriers to the implementation of these strategies.

摘要

建设可持续社会需要减少对化石燃料的依赖，并降低产生的污染量。废水处理是一个可以同时实现这两个目标的领域。因此，最近出现了一种范式转变，即从处理废物转变为利用废物。有几种生物处理策略，在处理工业和农业废水的同时生产生物能源或生物化学品，包括产甲烷厌氧消化、生物制氢、微生物燃料电池以及发酵生产有价值的产品。然而，实施这些策略也存在科学和技术障碍。
