ABSTRACT
High ammonia concentration in wastewater can hinder methane production rate in anaerobic digestion (AD)-microbial electrosynthesis systems (ADMES). To address this issue, a dual-chamber reactor was fabricated using an anion exchange membrane (AEM) to separate the dark-fermentation (DF) and ADMES process, preventing ammonia migration from the DF chamber to the ADMES chamber. As a result, the DF-ADMES achieved a high methane yield based on chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 0.35 L CH4/gCOD compared to control operation AD (0.23 L CH4/gCOD) and ADMES (0.30 L CH4/gCOD). Additionally, hydrogen could be recovered from the DF chamber which improved the energy efficiency of the DF-ADMES reactor (91.7 %) as compared to control AD (53.4 %) and ADMES (71.9 %). Thus, a dual-chamber DF-ADMES with an AEM separator could be a feasible design for scalable treatment of high nitrogen-containing wastewater and high bioenergy recovery.
