Enhancement of microalgae anaerobic digestion by thermo-alkaline pretreatment with lime (CaO) [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate for the first time the effect of a thermo-alkaline pretreatment with lime (CaO) on microalgae anaerobic digestion. The pretreatment was carried out by adding different CaO doses (4 and 10%) at different temperatures (
