Recent Progress and Trend in Biological Production of Hydrogen

Hydrogen is widely considered as a potential substitute for fossil fuels because it is a clean, efficient and renewable energy. The hydrogen production by biological processes, compared with that by thermochemical and electrochemical processes was found with less environment pollution and low energy consumption. In recent years, hydrogen production by biological processes has made great progress in screening of fermentation microorganisms, and production mechanisms and technologies. The technology combining with photo and dark-fermentation processes is a new approach to hydrogen production with higher yield of hydrogen. It will bring a broad future for hydrogen production by the technology with anaerobic bacteria and photo-heterotrophic bacteria using the wastes from agriculture and industry rich in carbohydrates. In this paper, the progress in hydrogen production technology by biological processes is summarized.
