Hydrogen is considered a clean and efficient energy carrier that will have broad applications in the future—as a fuel for cars, buses, for houses heating, or as an energy storage. However, it is currently mainly produced from fossil fuels. In order for it to become a 'green' energy carrier, techniques for extracting it from renewable sources such as solar energy, wind, water, or biomass must be developed.

The process was carried out using a mixed bacterial culture to enable the simultaneous utilization of different substrates. An increase in hydrogen production rate was observed at shortened hydraulic retention time. Moreover, it was demonstrated that optimal pH conditions depend on the hydraulic retention time.
