Abstract：A strain (designated as DB803) producing hydrogen efficiently with glycerol as the carbon source was screened from 37 photosynthetic bacterial strains. This strain was identified as Rhodobacter sphaeroides based on its phenotype, physiological and biochemical characteristics, the sequence of its 16S rRNA gene and fingerprinting of ERIC-PCR. Its hydrogen yields from biodiesel wastewater at different dilution times were investigated under the anaerobic condition of 30℃, 4000lx of illumination. The average hydrogen-producing rate of 38mL/(L·h) was observed at log phase when the initial COD value of wastewater was diluted to 11.5g/L. Meanwhile, the COD decreased greatly with a removal efficiency of 91.2% at batch test.
