The purpose of this study is to present an effective form of developing a sequential dark (DF) and photo (PF) fermentation using volatile fatty acids (VFAs) and nitrogen compounds as bonding components between both metabolic networks of microbial growing in each fermentation. A simultaneous (co-)culture of Syntrophomonas wolfei (with its ability to consume butyrate and produce acetate) and Rhodopseudomonas palustris (that can use the produced acetate as a carbon source) performed a syntrophic metabolism. The former bacteria consumed the acetate/butyrate mixture reducing the butyrate concentration below 2.0 g/L, permitting Rhodopseudomonas palustris to produce hydrogen. Considering that the inoculum composition ( Syntrophomonas wolfei / Rhodopseudomonas palustris ) and the nitrogen source (yeast extract) define the microbial biomass specific productivity and the butyrate consumption, a response surface methodology defined the best inoculum design and yeast extract (YE) yielding to the highest biomass concentration of 1.1 g/L after 380.00 h. A second culture process (without a nitrogen source) showed the biomass produced in the previous culture process yields to produce a total cumulated hydrogen concentration of 3.4 mmol. This value was not obtained previously with the pure strain Rhodopseudomonas palustris if the culture medium contained butyrate concentration above 2.0 g/L, representing a contribution to the sequential fermentation scheme based on DF and PF.
