The Use of Crude Glycerol as a Co-Substrate for Anaerobic Digestion. [PDF]
MoleculesOne of the most interesting applications of crude glycerol (CG) is its use for biogas production via the anaerobic co-digestion (AcoD) process. The main aim of the current study was to provide a comprehensive review on the performance of the AcoD of CG mixed with various substrates. For this purpose, analyses were performed for studies available in the
