Microbial community in methanogenic packed-bed reactor successfully operating at short hydraulic retention time

Kengo Sasaki et al. J Biosci Bioeng. 2006 Mar.

Abstract

The microbial community in a thermophilic anaerobic packed-bed reactor, which had been successfully operated to convert acetic and butyric acids to methane at a short hydraulic retention time (from 24 h to 1.9 h), was investigated. Archaea closely related to known methanogens were detected by 16S rRNA gene analyses of the effluents, together with diverse types of unidentified bacteria.
