The applicability and convenience of biohydrogen and poly-β-hydroxybutyrate production through single-stage photofermentation of winery wastewater is demonstrated in the present study. Experiments are conducted using a purple non-sulfur bacteria mixed consortium, subject to variable nutrient conditi...
