Hydrolysis

  • High molecular weight organic polymers

split into smaller more bioavailable monomers.

  • Proteins > Amino acids | Carbohydrates >

Monosaccharides | Fats > Fatty acids | + H2

Acidogenesis

  • Acidogenic fermentation of hydrolysed

products to short chain…

  • volatile acids (propionic, butyric, acetic, formic,

lactic)

  • alcohols (ethanol, methanol)
  • H2 + CO2 + NH3 + H2S

Acetogenesis

  • Further digestion of acids by acetogens to

H2, CO2 and acetic acid.

Methanogenesis

  • Methanogenic archaea convert H2 and

acetic acid to CH4, CO2.

Analysis:

  • Distance-based linear model (DistLM).
  • Multivariate chemical data matrix using

the abundance profiles of Candidatus. Cloacimonetes and the Defluviitoga as the predictor variables.

  • The predictor variables are additionally

plotted as vectors (annotated arrows).

  • The abundance profiles of these two

microorganisms are cumulatively able to explain 62.61% of the chemical variation

  • bserved.
  • Candidatus Cloacimonetes phylum abundance correlates with the chemical

pattern separating reactor conditions – propionate degradation?

  • Defluviitoga suggests that increases in its abundance are related to the

chemistry observed for digestate-only control reactors – specific inhibition by bio-oil?

Importance

Use of Microbial Consortia for Conversion of Biomass Pyrolysis Liquids into Value-Added Products Julian Pietrzyk julian.pietrzyk@ed.ac.uk

  • Patterns in reactor chemistry can be correlated to

fluxes in microbial community

  • Understanding the microbial players involved at

each stage of AD

  • Longitudinal studies: continuous sampling of

both the chemical and biological species involved to identify process bottlenecks

  • Strategies to overcome inhibition

Scanning electron microscope image

  • f a biochar surface. From Schulz, H.

& Glaser, B. (2012).

Biochar

Biochar supplementation aids AD by the adsorption of inhibitory compounds and via the adherence of microbial cells in biofilms.

  • High surface area, biofilm formation
  • Biofilms show increased resistance to

environmental stresses

  • Partially conductive to the flow of electrons,

capable of supporting direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET)
