Thermophilic anaerobic treatment and biogas generation from wastewater produced in an advanced biorefinery process

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Anaerobic digestion can be an alternative method for treating wastewater from second‐generation biorefineries while simultaneously producing biogas. However, the feasibility of the process and key operational parameters by which wastewater produced in lignocellulosic biorefineries affects reactor performance remain poorly understood.

Biogas production from Opuntia stricta Haw.: microbial diversity and solid load influence on sludge recycle systems

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The search for alternative and sustainable energy sources becomes urgent as energy demand increases and fossil fuels become less available, especially in water‐scarce regions such as the Brazilian semi‐arid region, where current projections of global warming and the expansion of arid and semi‐arid zones point to a future of desertification ...

Long‐term assessment of the effect of OLR, HRT and temperature on domestic sewage treatment using AnMBR to enhance biomethane production

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of an anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) to treat domestic sewage by removing organic matter and nutrients while producing biogas. AnMBRs combine anaerobic digestion with membrane filtration, and stand out for their low energy consumption, low sludge production and potential for ...
