Improving Inter-Laboratory Reproducibility in Measurement of Biochemical Methane Potential (BMP) [PDF]
Water, 2020 Biochemical methane potential (BMP) tests used to determine the ultimate methane yield of organic substrates are not sufficiently standardized to ensure reproducibility among laboratories. In this contribution, a standardized BMP protocol was tested in a large inter-laboratory project, and results were used to quantify sources of variability and to ...

Microbial degradation of dimethylsulphide and related C1-sulphur compounds: organisms and pathways controlling fluxes of sulphur in the biosphere [PDF]
, 2010 Dimethylsulphide (DMS) plays a major role in the global sulphur cycle. It has important implications for atmospheric chemistry, climate regulation, and sulphur transport from the marine to the atmospheric and terrestrial environments.

Effects of Two Manure Additives on Methane Emissions from Dairy Manure
Animals, 2020 Liquid manure is a significant source of methane (CH4), a greenhouse gas. Many livestock farms use manure additives for practical and agronomic purposes, but the effect on CH4 emissions is unknown.

Augmenting Biogas Process Modeling by Resolving Intracellular Metabolic Activity [PDF]
, 2019 The process of anaerobic digestion in which waste biomass is transformed to methane by complex microbial communities has been modeled for more than 16 years by parametric gray box approaches that simplify process biology and do not resolve intracellular ...

Biochemical methane potential of biomass and waste feedstocks
Biomass and Bioenergy, 1993 Abstract The biochemical methane potential (BMP)) assay was evaluated in terms of inoculum (rumen versus primary sludge digester), inoculum-to-feed ratio, and particle size for analysis of extent and rate of conversion of biomass and waste feedstocks to methane. The rumen and sludge inocula exhibited similar solubilization of particulate matter.

Effect of suspended solids removal methods on methane production from tapioca starch wastewater
Engineering and Applied Science Research, 2020 This study aims to evaluate methods for removing suspended solids (SS)from tapioca starch wastewater to increase methaneproducing activity (MPA) and biochemical methane potential (BMP).Three methods for SS removal, filtration, centrifugation, and ...

, 2022 The overall goal of this research is to determine the biological properties of the excavated waste residue (EWR) from the Calgary Biocell to evaluate overall environmental economic value of Biocell technology. Biochemical methane potential (BMP) and methane oxidation potential (MOP) of the EWR were evaluated to find the carbon offset of the Calgary ...
