In the present study, a tailor-made plug-flow reactor with 3D-printed parts and multi-position monitoring of pH-value, conductivity ORP at inlet, center outlet part is introduced applied in anaerobic digestion order to investigate whether i) formation gradients can be detected, ii) ideal single or multiple spots for location sensors during an acidification process identified, iii) spatial gradient acquisition allows indirect performance measures, e.g. accumulation short-chain carboxylic...
Abstract Background. Short-chain carboxylic acids are interesting building blocks that can be synthesized from biogenic residues with the so-called dark fermentation. One challenge though is hydrolysis of lignocellulosic to make them accessible for whole cell biotransformation. Accessibility achieved through conversion lignocellulose microbial exoenzymes. In this study, bacteria and fungi were isolated different lignocellulose-containing feedstock. A workflow an automated screening strains...
Anaerobic digestion in a plug-flow reactor should lead to the formation of gradients as hydrolysis dominates first part followed by dominating acido-/acetogenesis and methanogenesis second part. This study investigates, whether monitoring pH-value, conductivity ORP at inlet, center outlet provides more information about process performance than measurement one spot. Therefore, lab-scale maize silage was partially disturbed, namely through an alternating power input stirring artificial...
