Abstract
The pH is one of the most important factors affecting metabolism pathway and activity of hydrogen producing bacteria. The effect of operational pH on anaerobic hydrogen fermentation of food waste was evaluated at mesophilic condition. In this batch experiment, the initial pH was 8.0 and the operational pH was controlled at 4.7~7.0 by the addition of 5N KOH solutions. At the operational pH of 4.7, the lag phase and the maximum hydrogen production were 47.9h and 534.4 mL, respectively. The lag phase and the maximum hydrogen production were decreased as the operational pH increased. At the operational pH of 7.0, the lag phase and the maximum hydrogen production were 4.2 h and 213.8 mL, respectively.
