摘要

With the goal of maximizing the H_2-harvesting efficiency, we designed an upflow single-chamber microbiai electrolysis cell (MEC) by placing the cathode on the top of the MEC and carried out a program to track the fate of H_2 and electron equivalents in batch experiments. When the initial acetate concentration was 10 mM in batch-evaluation experiments lasting 32 h, the cathodic conversion efficiency (CCE) from coulombs (i.e., electron equivalents in current from the anode to the cathodel to H_2 was 98 ± 2%, the Coulombic efficiency (CE) was 60 ± 1%, the H_2 yield was 59 ± 2%, and methane production was negligible. However, longer batch reaction time (~ 7 days) associated with higher initial acetate concentrations (30 or 80 mM) led to significant H_2 loss due to CH_4 accumulation: up to 14 ± 1% and 16 ± 2% of the biogas at 30 and 80 mM of acetate, respectively. Quantitative PCR proved that no acetoclastic methanogens were present but that hydrogenotrophic methanogens (i.e., Methanobacteriales) were present on both electrodes. The hydrogenotrophic methanogens decreased the CCE by diverting H_2 generated at the cathode to CH_4 in the upflow single-chamber MEC. In some experiments, the CE was greater than 100%. The cause was anode-respiring bacteria oxidizing H_2 and producing current, which recycled H_2 between the cathode and the anodes, increasing CE to over 100%, but with a concomitant decline in CCE, despite negligible CH_4 formation.
