The effect of pretreatments by hydrothermolysis (180 degrees C; 15 min) and alkaline delignification (NaOH 5M; H2O2 1%; 24 h) in citrus peel waste (CPW) was evaluated, as well as the effect on H-2, organic acids and alcohols production, in addition to characterization of the microbial community involved in fermentation. Batch reactors at 37 degrees C were operated with 3 gTVS/L of CPW with allochthonous consortium (UASB reactor sludge; 2 gTVS/L) and autochthonous of CPW (1.5 gTVS/L) as inocula. H-2 production was higher in reactors with in natura CPW (13.31 mmol/L) compared to hydrothermolysis (8.19 mmol/L) and alkaline delignification (7.27 mmol/L). The acetogenic pathway was predominant in the in natura CPW (4,355 mg/L acetic acid). The most abundant genera in the in natura CPW and after hydrothermolysis were Clostridium (18.97 and 12.90%, respectively) and Ruminiclostridium (16.65 and 1.04%, respectively) commonly related to cellulolytic bacteria and/or H-2 production.
