Recycling Biogas Digestate from Energy Crops: Effects on Soil Properties and Crop Productivity

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Digestate from biogas production can be recycled to the soil as conditioner/fertilizer improving the environmental sustainability of the energy supply chain. In a three-year maize-triticale rotation, we investigated the short-term effects of digestate on

Casting Light on the Micro-Organisms in Digestate: Diversity and Untapped Potential

open access: yesFermentation, 2023
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is an established process for waste conversion to bioenergy. However, for the AD process to be viable, it is imperative that all products be adequately valorized to maximize the benefits associated with the technology and in turn

Effect of carbon-enriched digestate on the microbial soil activity.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
ObjectivesAs a liquid organic fertilizer used in agriculture, digestate is rich in many nutrients (i.e. nitrogen, phosphorus, sulfur, calcium, potassium); their utilization may be however less efficient in soils poor in organic carbon (due to low carbon ...

Yield and Quality of Rice under the Effects of Digestate Application

open access: yesAgriculture, 2022
As a major measure to handle livestock manure, digestate is the by-product during biogas production in anaerobic fermentation. Digestate can be returned to cropland as a replacement for chemical fertilizer regarding its cost-effectiveness and rich ...

Microbial removal of nutrients from anaerobic digestate: assessing product-coupled and non-product-coupled approaches

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Although anaerobic digestate contains >90% water, the high nutrient content of digestate makes it economically and technically intractable to treatment by existing wastewater treatment technologies.

EFFECT of digestates derived from the fermentation of maize-legume intercropped culture and maize monoculture application on soil properties and plant biomass production

open access: yesChemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture, 2022
Background The use of maize-legume mixed culture to produce renewable energy and fertilizers by anaerobic fermentation (AD), while respecting soil quality is a favourable approach in sustainable farming. This paper investigates how the substrate (silage)
