Glossary
Anaerobic Digestion
Series of biological processes in which microorganisms break down
biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen
Biohydrogen Production Production of hydrogen via fermentation of a broad range of organic
feedstocks by bacteria.
Dark Fermentation
The fermentative conversion of organic substrate to biohydrogen.
Industrial Waste
Waste generated by manufacturing or industrial processes.
Mixed Culture
Mixed culture contains more than one type of organism growing in a
medium.
Organic Loading Rate
The amount of organics to be fed into the anaerobic digester each
day.
