Abstract

A microbial consortium, designated LZF-12, was obtained by successive subcultivation in the presence of rice straw under static conditions at 35 ºC. The number of bacilli was dominant in microbial consortium by scanning electron microscopy. The degradation efficiencies of LZF-12 for rice straw, hemicelluloses, cellulose and lignin were 70%、92.9%、82.6% and 21.8%, respectively for 12 days cultivation. There was near 70% of acetic acid in end metabolism products in addition to little butyric acid, propionic acid and ethanol. This fermentation type will provide essential material base for stable and effective operation of methanogenic phase in two-phase anaerobic digestion process.
