Abstract
The growing demand for clean energy has spurred the quest for sustainable alternatives to fossil fuels. Hydrogen has emerged as a promising candidate with its exceptional heating value and zero emissions upon combustion. However, conventional hydrogen production methods contribute to CO2 emissions, necessitating environmentally friendly alternatives. With its vast potential, seawater has garnered attention as a valuable resource for hydrogen production, especially in arid coastal regions with surplus renewable energy. Direct seawater electrolysis presents a viable option, although it faces challenges such as corrosion, competing reactions, and the presence of various impurities. To enhance the seawater electrolysis efficiency and overcome these challenges, researchers have turned to bipolar membranes (BPMs). These membranes create two distinct pH environments and selectively facilitate water dissociation by allowing the passage of protons and hydroxide ions, while acting as a barrier to cations and anions. Moreover, the presence of catalysts at the BPM junction or interface can further accelerate water dissociation. Alongside the thermodynamic potential, the efficiency of the system is significantly influenced by the water dissociation potential of BPMs. By exploiting these unique properties, BPMs offer a promising solution to improve the overall efficiency of seawater electrolysis processes. This paper reviews BPM electrolysis, including the water dissociation mechanism, recent advancements in BPM synthesis, and the challenges encountered in seawater electrolysis. Furthermore, it explores promising strategies to optimize the water dissociation reaction in BPMs, paving the way for sustainable hydrogen production from seawater.

Abstract
In order to achieve the carbon neutrality goal set by Chinese government, the potential contribution of hydrogen production from crop residues by microbial fermentation technology and Greenhouse gas (GHGs) reduction have been studied. Firstly, the annual yield of crop straw was estimated according to crop yield and grass grain ratio, and then the grey model GM (1, 1) was applied to predict the crop residues resources available for hydrogen production in various provinces in China in 2021. The results showed that the maximum resource of straw being available for hydrogen production is about 4.54 × 108 t, corresponding to 1.31 × 1011 m3 of hydrogen, the energy carried by the obtained hydrogen was 73 % and 1.15 times than the energy of national civil natural gas consumption and energy of transportation gasoline consumption, respectively. The potential reduction of greenhouse gas emission was 2.42 × 108 t/a CO2-eq, representing 2.4 % of GHGs emissions.

Abstract
In this study, the effect of bioreactor headspace pressure regulation on photo-fermentative hydrogen production (PFHP) from corn stover (CS) was investigated. The results showed that the headspace pressure could significantly affect the performance of PFHP. With the decrease in the reactor headspace pressure (100 kPa-10 kPa), cumulative biohydrogen production firstincreased and then decreased, the maximum hydrogen yield of 546.57 mL was obtained at the headspace pressure of 30 kPa. The parameters of Gompertz model showed a lower hydrogen partial pressure was beneficial to speed up the reaction process and shorten the hydrogen production delay time of the system, however, too low pressure would inhibit the metabolism of microorganisms in the PFHP process, resulting lower hydrogen yield obtained.

Gradient electro-processing strategy for efficient conversion of harmful algal blooms to biohythane with mechanisms insight. WATER RESEARCH 2022; 222:118929.

Abstract
Globally eruptive harmful algal blooms (HABs) have caused numerous negative effects on aquatic ecosystem and human health. Conversion of HABs into biohythane via dark fermentation (DF) is a promising approach to simultaneously cope with environmental and energy issues, but low HABs harvesting efficiency and biohythane productivity severely hinder its application. Here we designed a gradient electro-processing strategy for efficient HABs harvesting and disruption, which had intrinsic advantages of no secondary pollution and high economic feasibility. Firstly, low current density (0.888-4.444 mA/cm2) was supplied to HABs suspension to harvest biomass via electro-flocculation, which achieved 98.59% harvesting efficiency. A mathematic model considering coupling effects of multi-influencing factors on HABs harvesting was constructed to guide large-scale application. Then, the harvested HABs biomass was disrupted via electro-oxidation under higher current density (44.44 mA/cm2) to improve bioavailability for DF. As results, hydrogen and methane yields of 64.46 mL/ (g VS) and 171.82 mL/(g VS) were obtained under 6 min electro-oxidation, along with the highest energy yield (50.1 kJ/L) and energy conversion efficiency (44.87%). Mechanisms of HABs harvesting and disruption under gradient electro-processing were revealed, along with the conversion pathways from HABs to biohythane. Together, this work provides a promising strategy for efficient disposal of HABs with extra benefit of biohythane production.

Abstract
The present work describes the utilisation of cheese whey to produce biohydrogen by sequential dark-photo fermentation. In first stage, cheese whey was fermented by Enterobacter aerogenes 2822 cells in a 2 L double-walled cylindrical bioreactor to produce hydrogen/organic acids giving maximum biohydrogen yield and cumulative hydrogen of 2.43 ± 0.12 mol mol-1 lactose and 3270 ± 143.5 mL at cheese whey concentration of 105 mM lactose L-1. The soluble metabolites of dark fermentation when utilised as carbon source for photo fermentation by Rhodobacter sphaeroides O.U.001, the yield, and cumulative hydrogen was increased to 4.22 ± 0.20 mol mol-1 VFA and 3800 ± 170 mL, respectively. Meanwhile, an overall COD removal of about 38.08% was also achieved. The overall biohydrogen yield was increased from 2.43 (dark fermentation) to 6.65 ± 0.25 mol mol-1 lactose. Similarly, the modelling for biohydrogen production in bioreactor was done using modified Gompertz equation and Leudeking-Piret model, which gave adequate simulated fitting with the experimental values. The carbon material balance showed that acetic acid, lactic acid, and CO2 along with microbial biomass were the main by-products of dark fermentation and comprised more than 75% of carbon consumed.

Abstract
The effect of citrate buffer on biohydrogen production using photosynthetic bacteria was studied. The study was performed in two steps. First, specific concentrations of citrate and sodium citrate as buffers were mixed into batch cultures, and the effects of these buffers on fermentation broth characteristics and biohydrogen production were analyzed. The maximum overall biohydrogen yield of 411.4 mL, which was 42% higher to the control group, was obtained with 0.05 mol/L citrate buffer. Then, the effect of 0.05 mol/L citrate buffer on biohydrogen yield at different pH values (5.5-7.5) were explored. The maximum biohydrogen yield of 429.82 mL was obtained at pH 6, and the final pH values were effectively controlled. The findings indicated that citrate buffer seriously affected the pH of the reaction liquid. The results provide technical support to stabilize the pH of photo-fermentation broth and improve biohydrogen production performance.

Abstract
Paulownia biomass is rich in carbohydrates, making which a potential feedstock for biohydrogen production. In the study, different parts and varieties of Paulownia were chose as substrates to evaluate hydrogen production potential of paulownia lignocellulose via biohydrogen production by photo fermentation (BHPPF) and energy conversion efficiency (ECE). Results showed the highest cumulative hydrogen yield (CHY) of 67.11 mL/g total solids (TS) and ECE of 4.74% were obtained from leaves of Paulownia, which were 121.06% and 115.45% higher than those of the branches. Moreover, Paulownia jianshiensis leaves were found to be the best variety for BHPPF, with the maximum CHY of 98.83 mL/g TS and ECE of 7.18%. Using Paulownia waste as the substrate to produce hydrogen helps broaden the range of raw materials for BHPPF and improve the economic utilization of forestry waste.

Abstract
Anaerobic fermentation system is easy to become acidic due to the generation of small molecular acids, which will affect the metabolism of bacteria. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the acid resistance of system. In this work, the tolerance of photo-fermentative biohydrogen production system amended with biochar, nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) and biochar + nZVI to acidic environment was studied. Results showed that additives improved the stability and performance of the photo fermentation. The best increment of biohydrogen from 0 to 286.83 ± 2.77 mL was obtained by adding biochar and nZVI together at the original pH of 4.5. The additive reduced the oxidation-reduction potential and promoted the consumption of acetate and butyrate. At initial pH of 5, 6 and 7, the highest biohydrogen yield of 361.02 ± 10.11, 419.36 ± 10.70 and 382.67 ± 25.08 mL was obtained by adding nZVI, respectively, representing 42%-44.45% increase compared with the control group under the same conditions.

Abstract
In the present study, starch-based potato peel waste biomass (PWB) was utilized as a potential substrate for hydrogen production via dark fermentation by the thermophillic amylase producing strain Parageobacillus thermoglucosidasius KCTC 33548. Supplementation of Fe3O4 nanoparticles (300 mg/L) led to a 4.15-fold increase in hydrogen production as compared to the control. The addition of optimized concentrations of both Fe3O4 nanoparticles (300 mg/L) and L-cysteine (250 mg/L) during hydrogen fermentation using pure starch and PWB generated maximum cumulative hydrogen yields of 167 and 71.9 mL with maximum production rates of 2.81 and 1.26 mL/h, respectively. Further, the correlation between Fe3O4 and the expression of hydrogenase isoforms and the related hydrogenase activity was explored. The possible mechanisms of the action of Fe3O4 on enhanced hydrogenase activity and hydrogen production was elucidated. To our knowledge, there are no such studies reported on enhanced hydrogen production from PWB in a single step.

Abstract
Due to its characteristics, hydrogen is considered the energy carrier of the future. Its use as a fuel generates reduced pollution, as if burned it almost exclusively produces water vapor. Hydrogen can be produced from numerous sources, both of fossil and renewable origin, and with as many production processes, which can use renewable or non-renewable energy sources. To achieve carbon neutrality, the sources must necessarily be renewable, and the production processes themselves must use renewable energy sources. In this review article the main characteristics of the most used hydrogen production methods are summarized, mainly focusing on renewable feedstocks, furthermore a series of relevant articles published in the last year, are reviewed. The production methods are grouped according to the type of energy they use; and at the end of each section the strengths and limitations of the processes are highlighted. The conclusions compare the main characteristics of the production processes studied and contextualize their possible use.

Enhancement of the biohydrogen production performance from mixed substrate by photo-fermentation: Effects of initial pH and inoculation volume ratio. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2021; 319:124153.

Abstract
Co-digestion of substrates can improve hydrogen yield (HY) by adjusting carbon nitrogen ratio (C/N) of fermentation substrates. This study evaluated the enhancement of hydrogen production from co-digestion of duckweed and corn straw via photo-fermentation. The maximum HY of 78.0 mL/g Total solid (TS) was obtained from the mixed ratio of 5:1 (C/N of 13.2), which was 25.4% and 29.6% higher than those of single substrate of duckweed and corn straw, respectively. The effects of initial pH and inoculation volume ratio (IVR) on co-digestion photo-fermentative hydrogen production (CD-PFHP) from duckweed and corn straw were further studied. A maximum HY of 85.6 mL/g TS was achieved under the optimal condition (initial pH 8, IVR 20%, mix ratio of duckweed and corn straw of 5:1). Additionally, both mix ratio and initial pH showed statistical difference (p < 0.05). Acetic acid and butyric acid were found to be the main metabolic by-products during CD-PFHP.

Comparison of bio-hydrogen and bio-methane production performance in continuous two-phase anaerobic fermentation system between co-digestion and digestate recirculation. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2020; 318:124269. [PMID: 33099098 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2020.124269] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2020] [Revised: 10/10/2020] [Accepted: 10/12/2020] [Indexed: 05/25/2023]
Abstract
The effect of co-digestion of food waste (FW) and cow dung (CD) with different ratios, and digestate recirculation with different recirculation ratios (RR) on the substrate degradation and energy production in continuous two-stage anaerobic fermentation system was investigated. Results from experiments indicated that co-digestion and digestate recirculation could promote the hydrogen production rate (HPR) and the methane production rate (MPR). Maximum HPR and MPR of 3.3 and 3.1 L/L/d were achieved for two-stage fermentation with recirculation system at RR of 0.4. Meanwhile, both co-digestion and digestate recirculation technology could reduce the amount of alkali addition to maintain pH in the hydrogen-reactor. Compared to digestate recirculation, co-digestion of FW and CD promote much more energy production, 654.9 and 4854.8 kJ/kgVSr were obtained from the co-digestion of FW and CD with the ratio of 2:1 in the hydrogen reactor and the methane reactor.

Photo-fermentation biohydrogen production and electrons distribution from dark fermentation effluents under batch, semi-continuous and continuous modes. BIORESOURCE TECHNOLOGY 2020; 311:123549. [PMID: 32451140 DOI: 10.1016/j.biortech.2020.123549] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/20/2020] [Revised: 05/13/2020] [Accepted: 05/15/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
In this work, the influence of batch, semi-continuous and continuous mode on biohydrogen production from dark fermentation effluents (DFEs) as substrate and electron distribution was investigated. Results indicated a better H2 production performance was obtained in semi-continuous mode. 50% decanting volume ratio (DVR) and 24 h feeding interval time (FIT) were found to be the best condition. Maximum average H2 production rate (HPR) and H2 yield were obtained of 8.44 mL/h and 1386.22 ± 44.23 mL H2/g TOC, respectively. 37.71% substrate electrons partitioning to hydrogen were detected. For continuous mode, more substrate electrons were diverted toward SMPs with the increasing of HRT due to the fact that longer cell retention, more chances were provided for cell lysis. The bad performance in batch mode ascribed to 56.39% substrate electrons were transferred to cell growth and soluble microbial products (SMPs).
