Acetogenesis

Acetogenesis is the process through which acetate is produced from carbon dioxide and electron sources like hydrogen by anaerobic bacteria via wood-Ljungdahl pathway. The bacterial species that are capable of this process are known to be Acetogens. Acetogens are characterized by wood-Ljungdahl pathway of carbon dioxide reduction with the acetyl coA as the key enzyme.
