## Abstract The effect of longβterm deprivation of all trace elements or solely cobalt on methanol conversion in upflow anaerobic sludge bed (UASB) reactors inoculated with a nickelβlimited sludge was investigated. Two UASB (30 Β°C, pH 7) reactors were operated at organic loading rates of up to 17.6
Introduction of an up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) reactor apparatus to fermentative hydrogen production (FHP) enormously improves H 2 production performance. However, the long start-up period required to form H 2 -producing granules (HPG) remains as a major obstacle. In the present work, a
