    Development of a Unique Integrated Bioreactor for Simultaneous Desalination and Bioenergy and Biohydrogen Production
    (Elsevier B.V., 2024) Yagmur Goren,A.; Dincer,I.; Khalvati,A.
    In the wastewater treatment challenge, it is really essential to develop integrated systems in reducing greenhouse gases, producing green energy and achieving sustainable development. In this regard, an integrated electro-biomembrane reactor was developed and performed in this study for simultaneous biohydrogen (bioH2) production from energetic poplar leaves using dark fermentation (DF) process, conventional H2 production, bioenergy production in the DF process, and saline water desalination in a single system. The results of this study showed that pH was the main controlling parameter in bioH2 production, and the superior production of 40.2 mL/g-biomass was obtained at a pH of 5.5. The maximum current and power density values were 2861.7 mW/m2 and 2819.4 mA/m2 at pH 5.5 under improved conditions. Furthermore, the maximum conventional H2 production was found to be 1341.6 mL using 2 M of KOH solution. Overall, the results further proved that the proposed integrated system can be a sustainable and promising process for industrial applications, considering its high desalination, energy production, and conventional and biological H2 production efficiencies. © 2024 The Authors

    Experimental Investigation of a Unique Electro-Biomembrane Based Integrated System for Wastewater Treatment and Simultaneous Clean Water, Hydrogen and Energy Production
    (Institution of Chemical Engineers, 2024) Goren,A.Y.; Dincer,I.; Khalvati,A.
    This paper concerns the design, development, and building of a unique electro-bio-membrane reactor for concurrent bioH2 production, desalination, and energy production by microorganisms in a single reactor. The effects of varying biomass amounts (5–50 g) and inoculum amounts (250–1500 mL) on the bioH2 production efficiency are also investigated. The lowest cumulative bioH2 yield of 24.2 mL/g is obtained using a biomass amount of 5 g, while it is 44.7 mL/g at a biomass amount of 50 g. The highest H2 production from water electrolysis is also found as 0.719 mL/min at improved conditions. Furthermore, the highest power and current density values are 2794.5 mW/m2 and 2786.1 mA/m2 at 1500 mL-inoculum, biomass amount of 30 g, initial pH of 5.5, and temperature of 37 °C in the dark fermentation (DF) cell. Moreover, the desalination efficiency increases from 41.6 to 65.8% with decreasing inoculum amounts from 1500 to 250 mL. © 2024 The Institution of Chemical Engineers
