A Review of the Enhancement of Bio-Hydrogen Generation by Chemicals Addition

A Review of the Enhancement of Bio-Hydrogen Generation by Chemicals Addition

Bio-hydrogen production (BHP) produced from renewable bio-resources is an attractive route for green energy production, due to its compelling advantages of relative high efficiency, cost-effectiveness, and lower ecological impact. This study reviewed different BHP pathways, and the most important en...
