Abstract
Fermentative kitchen waste to produce high-value chemicals (e.g., acetic acid) has been investigated actively in the past decades. Creating an alkaline condition is widely used to improve the hydrolysis of polysaccharide and inhibit the methanogenesis, but this method significantly increases the overall cost. Herein, the present study investigated the bioaugmentation with rumen fluid to improve acetic acid production from kitchen waste at neutral condition via strengthening hydrolytic and acid-forming bacteria. Results showed that the highest acetic acid yield reached 1.52 g/L at rumen fluid and granular sludge ratio of 1:1. The proportion of acetic acid in volatile fatty acids (VFAs) has increased by 10% compared to control. Microbial community analysis revealed that bioaugmentation with rumen fluid increased the relative abundance of Prevotella and Rikenellaceae_RC9_gut_group which has the ability to degrade polysaccharides and produce acetic acid. Moreover, the proliferation of butyric acid producers (Clostridium_sensu_stricto_1 and Clostridium_sensu_stricto_7) were inhibited significantly, which was in agreement with high acetic acid proportion in VFAs. The bioaugmentation strategy and process optimization provided an energy and cost-saving method for acetic acid production from kitchen waste.
期刊介绍：
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution is an international, interdisciplinary journal on all aspects of pollution and solutions to pollution in the biosphere. This includes chemical, physical and biological processes affecting flora, fauna, water, air and soil in relation to environmental pollution. Because of its scope, the subject areas are diverse and include all aspects of pollution sources, transport, deposition, accumulation, acid precipitation, atmospheric pollution, metals, aquatic pollution including marine pollution and ground water, waste water, pesticides, soil pollution, sewage, sediment pollution, forestry pollution, effects of pollutants on humans, vegetation, fish, aquatic species, micro-organisms, and animals, environmental and molecular toxicology applied to pollution research, biosensors, global and climate change, ecological implications of pollution and pollution models. Water, Air, & Soil Pollution also publishes manuscripts on novel methods used in the study of environmental pollutants, environmental toxicology, environmental biology, novel environmental engineering related to pollution, biodiversity as influenced by pollution, novel environmental biotechnology as applied to pollution (e.g. bioremediation), environmental modelling and biorestoration of polluted environments.
Articles should not be submitted that are of local interest only and do not advance international knowledge in environmental pollution and solutions to pollution. Articles that simply replicate known knowledge or techniques while researching a local pollution problem will normally be rejected without review. Submitted articles must have up-to-date references, employ the correct experimental replication and statistical analysis, where needed and contain a significant contribution to new knowledge. The publishing and editorial team sincerely appreciate your cooperation.
Water, Air, & Soil Pollution publishes research papers; review articles; mini-reviews; and book reviews.
