Abstract
This mini review overviewed the latest updates on the anaerobic hydrogen fermentation using the granulation technology and the microbiome involved in the process. Additionally, the implication of various reactor design and their microbial changes were compared and provided the new insights on the role of microbiomes for rapid granules formation and long term stable operation in a continuous mode operation. The information provided in this communication would help to understand the key role of microbiomes and their importance in anaerobic hydrogen producing granular systems.
