Biohydrogen production from cassava wastewater in an anaerobic fluidized bed reactor

The effect of hydraulic retention time (HRT) and organic loading rate (OLR) on biological hydrogen production was assessed using an anaerobic fluidized bed reactor fed with cassava wastewater. The HRT of this reactor ranged from 8 to 1 h (28 to 161 kg COD/m³-d). The inoculum was obtained from a facu...
