Boosting landfill gas production from lignin-containing wastes via termite hindgut microorganism. [PDF]

, 2020
Lignocellulose comprises a significant portion of municipal solid waste (MSW) - 40-70% in developed countries, including paper, wood, and yard waste. Cellulose and hemicellulose are often shielded by lignin, posing a barrier to waste decomposition and ...

Stoichiometries of remineralisation and denitrification in global biogeochemical ocean models [PDF]

, 2009
Since the seminal paper of Redfield (1934), constant stoichiometric elemental ratios linking biotic carbon and nutrient fluxes are often assumed in marine biogeochemistry, and especially in coupled biogeochemical circulation models, to couple the global ...

Methanogen Community Dynamics and Methanogenic Function Response to Solid Waste Decomposition

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Methane production during solid waste decomposition is a typical methanogen-mediated and enzyme-catalyzed anaerobic digestion (AD). Methanogen community dynamics and metabolic diversity during the decomposition are not known.

Aerobic and anaerobic decomposition rates in drained peatlands: Impact of botanical composition

Science of The Total Environment
Drained peatlands in temperate climates are under threat from climate change and human activities. The resulting decomposition of organic matter plays a major role in regulating the associated land subsidence rates, yet the determinants of aerobic and anaerobic peat decomposition rates are not fully understood.

Nitrogen and sulphur management: challenges for organic sources in temperate agricultural systems [PDF]

, 2005
A current global trend towards intensification or specialization of agricultural enterprises has been accompanied by increasing public awareness of associated environmental consequences. Air and water pollution from losses of nutrients, such as nitrogen (

Comparison of in Batch Aerobic and Anaerobic Processes for the Degradation of Organic Matter in a Tropical Reservoir

Revista Facultad de Ingeniería, 2020
The decomposition of submerged organic matter after the flooding process of a reservoir and the organic matter transported by the tributaries that supply it, gives rise to the formation of greenhouse gases (GHG), such as CO2 and CH4, product of the ...

Determination and Optimization of Aerobic and Anaerobic Decomposition of Paper Sludge

Water
The processing of paper sludge is currently an important environmental topic due to its high global production. The aim of this study is to monitor the biodegradation of paper sludge when the initial conditions change. Biodegradability tests 301F and OECD 311 were used to determine biodegradation.
