The Research on Anaerobic Bio-Hydrogen Production Using UASB Reactor from Molasses Wastewater

The principle and engineering control parameters of anaerobic bio-hydrogen in an up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor are introduced, especially on the research situation and development trend of this technology. Many theoretical achievements of bio-hydrogen production using UASB reactor have been made, but the large scale industrialization of this technology has not been realized because there are still some difficulties in start-up and operation of the UASB reactor. Finally, some strategies and suggestions are proposed as guidance for further research.
