Microbial Fuel and Chemical Production Using Sweet Potatoes
Microbial production of biofuels and chemicals from sweet potatoes
Extensive use of fossil fuels over the years has resulted in increased petrol and electricity prices as well as negative impacts on the environment resulting from increased Green House Gas (GHG) emissions. There is therefore a need for a renewable and more environmental friendly source of energy. The aim of this study was to produce an alternative fuel source in a form of biofuels from sweet potato tuber using a laboratory-scale Fluidized Bed Bio-Reactor (FBBR). Bacteria isolated from sweet potato tuber were identified based on their 16S rRNA sequence using colony PCR followed by sequencing. Batch fermentation was operated using M9 minimal gr…
