This work aimed to study biohydrogen (H-2) and polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) production from original hydrolyzed polyacrylamide (HPAM)-containing wastewater. NH4+-N from HPAM hydrolysis was removed efficiently through short-cut nitrification and anoxic ammonia oxidation (anammox). Carbon/Nitrogen (C/N) ratios of effluent reached 51-97, and TOC decreased only 2%-4%, providing potential for subsequent H2 and PHA production. The maximum yields of H-2( 0.833 mL.mg(substrate)(-1)) and Volatile Fatty Acid (VFA) (465 mg.L-1) occurred at influent C/N ratio of 51. Substrate removal increased linearly with the activities of dehydrogenase and hydrogenase (R-2 >= 0.990), and H-2 yield rose exponentially with enzyme activities (R-2 >= 0.989). The maximum PHA yield (54.2% VSS) occurred at the 42nd hour and influent C/N ratio of 97. PHA yield was positively correlated with substrate uptake. The change of H-2-producing, PHA-accumulating and HPAM-degradating bacteria indicated that those functional microorganisms had synergistic effects on H-2 production and substrate uptake, as well as PHA accumulation and substrate uptake.
