Abstract

The kinetic regularities of anaerobic conversion of glucose, ethanol, methanol, acetate, and carbon dioxide by a syntrophic methanogenic association were investigated.

The processes of formation of various metabolities from the above listed substrates under argon and hydrogen were studied in quantitative terms. The dependences of metabolite formation rates on the starting concentrations of the substrates and pH were investigated. Kinetic conversion schemes for the given substrates and the methanogenic association were evolved.
