Effects of press-mud pre-treatment on the feasibility of biogas production
In this study, an energetic, economic and environmental feasibility for the anaerobic digestion (AD) of press mud previously pre-treated with liquid hot water (LHW) or thermo-alkaline (TA) methods were assessed.

Optimization of Biogas Generation from Press Mud in Batch Reactor
Press mud collected from sugar mills in Punjab, India were characterized and found to contain 75-80% organic matter, which mainly consists of cellulose, hemicellulose, lignin, protein, sugar, wax, etc. Biogas generation from press mud in a 2-litre batch reactor was studied at solid concentrations of 4 to 12%.

Press mud, a by-product from sugar milling, has agronomic soil input value, but its transport distance from the mill site is limited by its high moisture content (75–80%). This results in over-application close to the mill, concentrating nutrient sources from a wider harvest region, and has potential for environmental harm.

Briquetting of Dry Sugarcane Leaves by Using Press Mud, Cow Dung, and Buffalo Dung as Binders
The world’s population is increasing rapidly. This means that energy consumption and demand for energy are also increasing at the same rate. It is estimated that energy will need to be provided to 9 to 10 billion people by 2040.

Gasification of coal and press mud blends in fluidised bed gasifier
In line with the clean-energy development program in India an attempt has been made towards utilisation of press mud, a sugar industry waste product, through co-gasification with high-ash coal. Gasification was conducted with the mixture of air and steam at a temperature 1,223 K under atmospheric pressure in a pilot scale fluidised bed gasifier.

Nowadays, we use fossil fuels fuels for electricity, heat for our homes and fuel for vehicles. We are using them faster than they are created. Finally, they are going to end. Today, there is an urgent need to find another source to fossil fuels since fossil fuels are vanishing. Therefore, we need to discover another source of energy. This article leads

ASPERGILLUS NIGER AS THE RAPID PRESS MUD COMPOSTING AGENT [PDF]
Composting with efficient microbes is considered a sustainable strategy for effective conversion of agricultural discards into a productive biofertilizer. The present study was designed to isolate fungal strain efficient in releasing hydrolytic enzymes for accelerated decomposition and value addition of press mud (PM).
