Biotechnology Letters Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The continuous production of hydrogen in a Nozzle Loop Bioreactor was investigated using immobilized Rhodospirillum rubum KS-301 with glucose as the growth-limiting substrate. The maximum hydrogen production rate in the experimental range was 91mL/h at dilution rate 0.4h-1, initial glucose concentration 5.4g/L, and circulation rate 70h-1 .
