4. Conclusions
This study demonstrated for the first time the effective conversion of OFMSW into H2 by using pure cultures of Bacillus sp. strains properly selected for both their proficient enzymatic activities and their high fermenting abilities from glucose and starch. Future studies will further increase their H2 performances and techno-economical evaluations will determine the actual feasibility of the whole process. Taken together, the results of this work gave advances in knowledge towards the development of microbial inoculants for the industrial processing of organic waste in H2.
