This paper presents a potential process that can enhance H transformation to CH and simultaneously upgrading biogas by using hydrogenotrophic methanogens. For the first time, anaerobic granules were developed in upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor feeding H/CO syngas as the sole substrate and the granule characterization was thoroughly investigated. The results from experiment revealed that the H consumption rates of UASB reactor increased from 32.2 mmol L·d at H feeding rate 0.08 g L·d to 132.0 mmol L·d at 0.37 g L·d, indicating that the hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis pathway was stimulated by injection of H. Abundant cavities and cracks were observed on the surface and cross-section of granules, which greatly facilitated internally transferring H/CO synthesis gas and biogas escape. The abundance of hydrogenotrophic Methanobacterium increased, while Methanosaeta, Methanosarcina, and Methanomassiliicoccus decreased with increasing H feeding rate. In general, this paper offers a feasible solution in terms of energy transformation and connecting power to fuel.
本文提出了一种潜在的方法,即利用氢营养型产甲烷菌将 H 转化为 CH 并同时升级沼气。本文首次以 H/CO 合成气作为唯一底物在升流式厌氧污泥床(UASB)反应器中开发出厌氧颗粒,并对颗粒特性进行了深入研究。实验结果表明,当 H 进料速率从 0.08 g·L·d 增加到 0.37 g·L·d 时,UASB 反应器的 H 消耗速率从 32.2 mmol·L·d 增加到 132.0 mmol·L·d,表明氢营养型产甲烷途径受到了 H 注入的刺激。颗粒的表面和横截面上观察到丰富的空腔和裂缝,这极大地促进了内部转移 H/CO 合成气和沼气的逸出。随着 H 进料速率的增加,氢营养型甲烷杆菌的丰度增加,而产甲烷菌属、甲烷八叠球菌和甲烷微球菌的丰度降低。总的来说,本文为能源转化和连接电源提供了一种可行的解决方案。
