Rhodobacter capsulatus is purple non-sulfur (PNS) bacterium which can produce hydrogen and CO2 by utilizing volatile organic acids in presence of light under anaerobic conditions. Photofermentation by PNS bacteria is strongly affected by temperature and light intensity. In the present study we present the kinetic analysis of growth, hydrogen production, and dual consumption of acetic acid and lactic acid at different temperatures (20, 30 and 38 degrees C) and light intensities (1500, 2000, 3000, 4000 and 5000 lux). The cell growth data fitted well to the logistic model and the cumulative hydrogen production data fitted well to the Modified Gompertz Model. The model parameters were affected by temperature and light intensity. Lactic acid was found to be consumed by first order kinetics. Rate of consumption of acetic acid was zero order until most of the lactic acid was consumed, and then it shifted to first order. The results revealed that the optimum light intensities for maximum hydrogen production were 5000 lux for 20 degrees C and 3000 lux for 30 degrees C and 38 degrees C.

Effect of light intensity, wavelength and illumination protocol on hydrogen production in photobioreactors
Uyar, Basar; EROĞLU, İNCİ; Yucel, Meral; Gündüz, Ufuk; Turker, Lemi (2007-12-01)
Rhodobacter sphaeroides O.U. 001 is a purple non-sulfur bacterium which evolves hydrogen from the breakdown of organic acids under illumination and anaerobic conditions. In this study, the effect of light intensity, light wavelength and illumination protocol on the growth and hydrogen production of R. sphaeroides O.U. 001 was investigated in gas-tight glass photobioreactors with defined medium. The results showed Also it was found that the rate of hydrogen production increased with increasing light intensit...
Cloning and heterologous expression of chlorophyll a synthase in Rhodobacter sphaeroides
Ipekoglu, Emre M.; Gocmen, Koray; Oz, Mehmet T.; Gurgan, Muazzez; Yucel, Meral (2017-03-01)
Rhodobacter sphaeroides is a purple non-sulfur bacterium which photoheterotrophically produces hydrogen from organic acids under anaerobic conditions. A gene coding for putative chlorophyll a synthase (chlG) from cyanobacterium Prochlorococcus marinus was amplified by nested polymerase chain reaction and cloned into an inducible-expression plasmid which was subsequently transferred to R. sphaeroides for heterologous expression. Induced expression of chlG in R. sphaeroides led to changes in light absorption ...
Biological hydrogen production from olive mill wastewater and its applications to bioremediation
Eroğlu, Ela; Eroğlu, İnci; Department of Chemical Engineering (2006)
Hydrogen production by photosynthetic bacteria occurs under illumination in the presence of anaerobic atmosphere from the breakdown of organic substrates, which is known as photofermentation. In this study, single-stage and two-stage process development were investigated for photofermentative hydrogen production from olive mill wastewater by Rhodobacter sphaeroides O.U.001 within indoor and outdoor photobioreactors. It was proven that diluted olive mill wastewater (OMW) could be utilized for photobiological...
Hydrogen production by Rhodobacter sphaeroides OU001 in a flat plate solar bioreactor
Eroglu, Inci; Tabanoglu, Altan; Gündüz, Ufuk; Eroglu, Ela; Yucel, Meral (2008-01-01)
Rhodobacter sphaeroides O.U.001 can produce hydrogen under anaerobic conditions and illumination. The objective of this study was to investigate the performance of an 81 flat plate solar bioreactor operating in outdoor conditions. Different organic acids were used as carbon sources (malate, lactate and acetate) and olive mill waste water was used as a sole substrate source. The consumption and the production of the organic acids were determined by HPLC. The accumulation of by-products, such as poly-beta-hyd...
Hydrogen production properties of Rhodobacter capsulatus with genetically modified redox balancing pathways
Ozturk, Yavuz; Gokce, Abdulmecit; Peksel, Begum; Gurgan, Muazzez; Ozgur, Ebru; Gündüz, Ufuk; Eroglu, Inci; Yucel, Meral (2012-01-01)
Rhodobacter capsulatus produces molecular hydrogen under the photoheterotrophic growth condition with reduced carbon sources (organic acids). Under this condition, ubiquinol pool is over reduced and excess reducing equivalents are primarily consumed via the reduction of CO2 through the Calvin-Benson-Bassham (CBS) pathway, the dimethylsulfoxide reductase (DMSOR) system or by the reduction of protons into hydrogen gas with the use of nitrogenase to maintain a balanced intracellular oxidation-reduction potenti...
