The impact of anaerobic digestate on soil life: a review [PDF]
Using organic amendments to fertilise crops is a crucial part in the sustainability of agricultural systems. The residual slurry remaining after biogas production (anaerobic digestate) contains a rich source of plant nutrients that provides an ...

Solid Fraction of Digestate from Biogas Plant as a Material for Pellets Production
One of the anaerobic digestion process products in an agricultural biogas plant is digestate (digested pulp). Large quantities of digestate generated in the process of biogas production all over the world require proper management.

Energetic and environmental benefits of co-digestion of food waste and cattle slurry: a preliminary assessment [PDF]
The research evaluated the feasibility of centralised pre-processing and pasteurisation of source-separated domestic food waste followed by transport to farms for anaerobic co-digestion with dairy cattle slurry.

Vitamin B12 bioaccumulation in Chlorella vulgaris grown on food waste-derived anaerobic digestate [PDF]
Anaerobic digestion plays a pivotal role in the modern circular economy, as it offers a sustainable solution for converting organic waste into biogas (methane). It also results in a nutrient-rich liquid stream, referred to as digestate. This digestate is

Anaerobic digestion of source segregated domestic food waste: performance assessment by mass and energy balance [PDF]
An anaerobic digester receiving food waste collected mainly from domestic kitchens was monitored over a period of 426 days. During this time information was gathered on the waste input material, the biogas production, and the digestate characteristics. A

Comparative assessment of bio-fertiliser quality of cow dung and anaerobic digestion effluent
The elevated use of inorganic fertilizers due to poor soil quality and the need for an increase in food production to meet the demand of the increasing global population has led to fertility decline in soil.

Biohydrogen production from food waste in batch and semi-continuous conditions: evaluation of a two-phase approach with digestate recirculation for pH control [PDF]
The research investigated the production of Biohythane in a two-phase anaerobic digestion process treating food waste as substrate. Preliminary batch assays were carried out at initial organic loadings of 15, 20, 25 and 30 kg TVS m?3, in stirred 1.5-l ...
