A comparative assessment of biomethane potential of fresh fecal matter and fecal sludge and its correlation with malodor

Environmental science and pollution research international
Comprehensive and proper management of fecal sludge (FS) is an ongoing concern in many nations. Decentralized fecal sludge treatment plants (FSTPs) are effective in this regard; however, many have experienced strong public opposition based partly on ...

Methane Generation Using an Anaerobic Biodigester From Waste Leachate Water

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Leachate wastewater (LWW) is characterized by slow biodegradation and low biogas production due to resistant materials and limited biological activity. Therefore, applying pretreatments is essential to improving biodegradation potential, which consequently boosts energy recovery.

Biomethane Potential of Beef Cattle Slaughterhouse Waste and the Impact of Co-Digestion with Cattle Feces and Swine Slurry

Fermentation
Slaughterhouse waste (SW) poses significant environmental challenges due to its complex composition, but anaerobic digestion offers a way to recover valuable biogas from SW. This study investigated the anaerobic co-digestion of beef cattle slaughterhouse
