Enhanced volatile fatty acids accumulation in anaerobic digestion through arresting methanogenesis by using hydrogen peroxide

Abstract: Volatile fatty acids (VFAs) can be accumulated as a final product of anaerobic digestion via arresting methanogenesis. Herein, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) was studied to inhibit methanogenesis for enhancing VFA accumulation with glucose as a substrate. The addition of 0.06 wt.% H2O2 significantly reduced methane production and led to a VFAs concentration of 1233.1 ± 55.9 mg L−1, much higher than 429.3 ± 5.6 mg L−1 in the control that did not have H2O2 addition. The dominated VFAs with H2O2 were acetic acid and pr… Show more

“…This observation is consistent with the finding that these substrates also had the highest SUM-VFA concentrations (Table 4). Despite the possibility of inhibition due to the high SUM-VFA concentration, it was not observed during the experiments because the inoculum used had a high buffer capacity [51][52][53][54][55].…”

“…Evaluations of sludge extent of digestion can be made from its volatile solids content and its ability to dewater [19]. Studies also reported that inoculum pretreatment of sludge can regulate the volatile fatty acid accumulation [20]. Anaerobic biodegradation is a complex process involving many microbial steps that are conducted by different groups of bacteria, and the toxicity that occurs during anaerobic treatments typically occurs as a result of the incubation of methanogenic/acetogenic bacteria.…”
