Volatile fatty acid (VFA) metabolism and population changes during re-start of a wet anaerobic digester for treatment of biowaste suspensions were investigated. Initially acetate and propionate accumulated. However, VFA degradation rates improved within 2 weeks, reaching a balanced metabolism with constantly low VFA concentrations. The total microbial population consisted of 60% acidogenic + acetogenic and 40% methanogenic bacteria. Maximally 5.1% of all bacteria in the digester were propionate-oxidizing bacteria.Pelotomaculumspecies were dominant, followed by much lower numbers ofSmithellaspecies andSyntrophobacterspecies.PelotomaculumandSmithellaspec. decreased during acetate and propionate accumulation and recovered later on, whereasSyntrophobacterspec. was steadily increasing during start-up. A nearly constant proportion ofMethanosaetaspec. was present all time, whileMethanosarcinaspec. decreased andMethanomicrobialesincreased during accumulation and degradation of acetate and propionate. During steady state proportions as in the inoculum were obtained.
