Exploring the roles of and interactions among microbes in dry co-digestion of food waste and pig manure using high-throughput 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2019
Background With the increasing global population and increasing demand for food, the generation of food waste and animal manure increases. Anaerobic digestion is one of the best available technologies for food waste and pig manure management by producing

Enhanced Methane Production from Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Wheat Straw and Herbal-Extraction Process Residues

BioResources, 2015
The efficient biosynthesis of methane from renewable biomass resources is discussed in this paper. Herbal-extraction process residues (HPR) are an excellent raw material for anaerobic digestion because of their abundant trace elements and fermentation ...

Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Wasted Vegetables and Activated Sludge

Biotechnology & Biotechnological Equipment, 2009
ABSTRACTAnaerobic co-digestion of activated sludge (AS) and wasted vegetables (wasted cucumbers (WC) and wasted tomatoes (WT)) was carried out at mesophilic conditions (34 ± 0.5°C). A continuously stirred bioreactor with volume of 5 dm3 (3 dm3 working volume) was used.

Understanding bio‐based polymers: A study of origins, properties, biodegradation and their impact on health and the environment

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This review provides an overview of bio‐based polymer sources, their unique functional properties and their environmental impact, and addresses their role as sustainable alternatives. It discusses end‐of‐life options, including composting and anaerobic digestion for renewable energy.

BIOGAS PRODUCTION USING WASTE WATERS – INFLUENCE OF PROCESS PARAMETERS FOR TEST RIG AT LABORATORY SCALE

Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai Chemia, 2017
Biogas production by anaerobic digestion of residual waters from different sources (a treatment plant and a beer factory) was investigated in laboratory small scale batch reactors. Both wastewaters represent efficient biogas substrates.

Effects of Lipase Addition, Hydrothermal Processing, Their Combination, and Co-Digestion with Crude Glycerol on Food Waste Anaerobic Digestion

Fermentation, 2021
To enhance anaerobic fermentation during food waste (FW) digestion, pretreatments can be applied or the FW can be co-digested with other waste. In this study, lipase addition (LA), hydrothermal pretreatment (HTP), and a combination of both methods (HL ...
