Hence, in this paper, a novel bio-carrier, activated carbon fiber, was firstly applied to immobilize the photo-fermentation bacteria for photo-hydrogen production and to overcome the above problems. The optimum amount, length, specific surface area and modified method of ACF were ascertained, and then the modified ACF was used in the photo-hydrogen producing anaerobic fluidized bed reactor. The optimal operation and control strategy of the reactor were established, which could provide the theory and the technical guidance for the development of bio-hydrogen production. The results showed that ACF was an excellent immobilized carrier for photo-fermentation bacteria with good biocompatibility and high immobilization ability. The hydrogen production increased with increasing the specific surface area, but the hydrogen production was inhibited when the amount and length of ACF were too high. When the specific surface area, length and amount of ACF was 1500 m2/g, 1 mm and 0.8 g/L in the batch tests, the maximum hydrogen yield of 3.05 molH2/mol acetate was obtained, which was about 12.4~47.3 % higher than that of the traditional carriers(clay and activated carbon). These demonstrated that ACF was an ideal carrier for the bacterial immobilization. The hydrogen production of HNO3 modified ACF was much better than those KOH and H2O2 modified ACF. The optimal concentration of HNO3 modification was 6 mol/L when the reaction time was 1 h. The maximum hydrogen production rate was 35.94 ml/L/h and the maximum hydrogen yield was 3.30 molH2/mol acetate, which was 36 % higher than the control. The content of surface oxygenic functional groups had strong influence on the photo-hydrogen production. After HNO3 modification, the content of carbon, oxygen and nitrogen we
