Methane fermentation is an attractive process to recovery energy as biogas from various kinds of biomass. In this process, hydrogen can be also recovered prior to methane production, named as hydrogen-methane two-step fermentation process. Biological hydrogen has some advantages to apply to fuel cells such as no contamination of CO and less hydrogen sulfide. In this article, after microbial and process aspects of methane fermentation were explained, why hydrogen can produced during methane fermentation was described. Then, our attempt for development of the process to treat organic waste discharged from bread manufacturing factory was also introduced.
