Inoculum selection influences the biochemical methane potential of agro-industrial substrates [PDF]
Obtaining a reliable estimation of the methane potential of organic waste streams in anaerobic digestion, for which a biochemical methane potential (BMP) test is often used, is of high importance.

Abstract This study explored the valorization of two carbohydrate rich food wastes, a sugary (spoiled dates, SD) and a starchy (wasted rice, WR) one, for the biotechnological production of α‐amylase, biohydrogen (bioH2), and methane (CH4). Initially, the bioH2 and CH4 production potentials of raw SD and WR were assessed without any pretreatment, via ...

Effect of freshwater washing pretreatment on Sargassum muticum as a feedstock for biogas production [PDF]
The pretreatment of seaweed by washing in freshwater is often used in seaweed biofuel research studies. However, the effect of washing seaweed prior to anaerobic digestion (AD) does not appear to have been greatly studied.

Influence of renewable energy trends on fossil fuel refining operations
Abstract This study examines how renewable energy indicators such as biofuel prices, biofuel integration, electrification, and carbon allowance prices relate to refined fuel production in Portugal’s refining sector. This is set against the backdrop of the sector’s decarbonization efforts and the economic pressures to meet European Union climate targets.

ABSTRACT This article examines whether and how patenting advances circular innovation and therefore contributes to the sociotechnical transition toward a circular economy. Using the multilevel perspective (MLP) as a theoretical framework, we conducted a case study set in the empirical context of man‐made cellulosic fibers. These heavily patented fibers

Uneven Distribution of Natural Energy Resources Impacts on Systemwide Energy Return on Investment
Abstract Regional disparities in natural energy resources may impede the acceleration of energy transitions in regional power systems, as the shift to net‐zero power systems requires significant energy inputs. Net energy, defined as the surplus remaining after accounting for energy inputs, serves as a key metric of system performance.

Promoting biogas and biomethane production: Lessons from cross country studies. ESRI WP630, July 2019 [PDF]
While a rich body of literature has looked at greenhouse gas emissions in biogas production systems and the potential impacts of biogas production on food supply, broader issues relating to the economic, environmental and social pillars of sustainability

Relating Anaerobic Digestion Microbial Community and Process Function [PDF]
Anaerobic digestion (AD) involves a consortium of microorganisms that convert substrates into biogas containing methane for renewable energy. The technology has suffered from the perception of being periodically unstable due to limited understanding of ...

Simple systems to characterize wastewaters - the case of biomethane potential
When the design or operation of wastewater treatment plans is considered, it is important to measure the polluting loads to be treated. These loads are calculated as the product of a daily volume of liquid waste and the average concentration of the pollutant. Of course, to do this, the sample must correctly represent the liquid effluent.
