“…In contrast to energy analysis, which is based on the first law of thermodynamics, exergy analysis, as a measure of both quantity and quality of energy, is preferred for the evaluation of different energy conversion systems . Simply speaking, exergy can be defined as the maximum amount of attainable work from a system when it reaches equilibrium with its environment through reversible processes . Today, exergy analysis and its extensions appear to be effective engineering tools over other traditional methods for the sustainability assessment of various energy conversion processes, which is notable because of their unique conceptual features to quantify the irreversibility aspects of thermodynamic systems …”

This study was devoted to the comprehensive thermodynamic modeling of biohydrogen production using the light‐dependent bacterium Rhodospirillum rubrum. Conventional exergy and eco‐exergy concepts were employed for decision making on the carbon source concentration and light intensity. Several thermodynamic indicators were applied to identify optimal experimental variables with respect to the sustainability issues. The results obtained using both concepts were remarkably different from each other because of the incorporation of the work of the information embodied in the genomes of the living microorganisms considered in the eco‐exergetic computations. However, both analyses identified 1 g L−1 substrate concentration and 1000 lux light intensity as optimal fermentation conditions. Under these conditions, the normalized exergy destruction as a decision making parameter was 179.7 and 171.54 kJ kJnormalH2 −1 using the conventional exergy and eco‐exergy concepts, respectively.
