Abstract

This chapter covers the information on bio-hydrogen and methane production from lignocellulosic materials. Pretreatment methods of lignocellulosic materials and the factors affecting bio-hydrogen production, both dark- and photofermentation, and methane production are addressed. Last but not least, the processes for bio-hydrogen and methane production from lignocellulosic materials are discussed.

Keywords: anaerobic digestion, pretreatment, biomass, bioconversion, fermentation process, bio-hydrogen, methane
