Microbial dynamics during anaerobic digestion of sewage sludge combined with food waste at high organic loading rates in immersed membrane bioreactors

Shiyi Qin et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the microbial profiling of anaerobic digestion during the processing of sewage sludge and food waste to volatile fatty acids in an immersed membrane bioreactor with different organic loading rates. Firmicutes and Actinobacteria were dominant at specific OLR levels, while Clostridium and Lactobacillus genera were responsible for higher yields of acetate, butyrate, caproate, and lactate. The bacterial community was dominated by the Firmicutes phylum and Clostridium sp. W14A species, indicating a lower population of acetogenic bacteria associated with greater VFAs generation.

Electron transfer and mechanism of energy production among syntrophic bacteria during acidogenic fermentation: A review

Chao Liu et al.

Summary: This review discusses the electron transfer and energetic mechanism in syntrophic processes between fermenting bacteria and acetogenic bacteria during VFAs production. Homoacetogenesis also plays a role in the syntrophic system by converting H2 and CO2 to acetate. Potential applications of these syntrophic activities in bioelectrochemical system and value-added product recovery from AD of organic wastes are also discussed. The study of acidogenic syntrophic relations is in its early stages, and additional investigation is required to better understand the mechanism of syntrophic relations.
