Maximizing Bio-Hydrogen and Energy Yields Obtained in a Self-Fermented Anaerobic Bioreactor by Screening of Different Sewage Sludge Pretreatment Methods
Abstrakt
Egypt faces significant challenges in managing its sewage sludge generated in large quantities from wastewater treatment plants. This study investigates the feasibility of utilizing sewage sludge as a renewable resource for hydrogen production through anaerobic digestion at the 100 L bioreactor level. Hydrogen is considered a promising alternative energy source due to its high energy content and environmental benefits. To optimize the microbial degradation process and maximize hydrogen production from sewage sludge, a specialized pretreatment is necessary. Various pretreatment methods have been applied to the sewage sludge, individually and in combination, to study the bio-hydrogen production from sewage sludge. The four methods of treatment were studied in batch assays as a pilot scale. Thermal pretreatment of sewage sludge significantly increases bio-hydrogen production yield compared to other sewage sludge pretreatment methods, producing the highest H2 yield (6.48 LH2/g VS). In general, the hydrogen yield of any type of pretreated inoculum was significantly higher than the untreated inoculum. At the same time, alkaline pretreatment improved the hydrogen yield (1.04 LH2/g VS) more than acid pretreatment (0.74 LH2/g VS), while the hydrogen yield for the combination of pretreatments (shock alkali pretreatment) was higher than both (1.73 LH2/g VS), On the other hand, untreated sewage sludge (control) had almost no hydrogen yield (0.03 LH2/g VS). The self-fermented anaerobic bioreactor improved sewage sludge utilization, increased bioenergy yields, and seems to be promising for treating complex wastes at this scale.
