Integrating anaerobic digestion and slow pyrolysis improves the product portfolio of a cocoa waste biorefinery [PDF]
The integration of conversion processes with anaerobic digestion is key to increase value from agricultural waste, like cocoa pod husks, generated in developing countries. The production of one metric ton of cocoa beans generates some 15 metric tonnes of

A Review on the Fate of Nutrients and Enhancement of Energy Recovery from Rice Straw through Anaerobic Digestion [PDF]
Open field burning and tilling the rice straw (RS) back into the fields causes environmental threats by contributing to the increased greenhouse gas emissions. Energy and nutrient recovery from RS through anaerobic digestion (AD) is an effective solution

Production of the freshwater microalgae Scenedesmus dimorphus and Arthrospira platensis by using cattle digestate [PDF]
Microalgae are considered one of the most promising feedstocks for biofuels; these microorganisms are also able to enhance the nutritional content of conventional food preparations, or can be converted into other fuel products, such as hydrogen, ethanol,

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a naturally-occurring biological process in soils, sediments, ruminants, and several other anoxic environments, that cycles carbon and other nutrients, and converts organic matter into a methane-rich gas. As a biotechnology, AD is now well-established for the treatment of the organic fraction of various waste materials ...

Nutrient recovery from biodigestion waste (water) streams and reuse as renewable fertilizers: a two-year field experiment [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of using bio-digestion waste derivatives as substitute for synthetic fertilizers and/or as P-poor equivalent for animal manure on soil and crop production. In a field trial, nutrient balances were assessed
