Treatment of tequila vinasse mixed with domestic wastewater in two types of constructed wetlands
Water Science and Technology, 2023 Tequila vinasse (TV) is a high-strength effluent generated during the production of tequila, with a chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration of up to 74 g/L.

Tequila vinasses acidogenesis in a UASB reactor with Clostridium predominance. [PDF]
Springerplus, 2015 Tequila vinasses represent an acidic, highly concentrated pollutant effluent generated during the distillation step of Tequila production. Although acidogenesis of Tequila vinasses has been reported for some reactor configurations, a characterization of the bacteria present during this metabolic process is lacking in the literature. Hydraulic retention

Dark Fermentation Process Response to the Use of Undiluted Tequila Vinasse without Nutrient Supplementation [PDF]
Sustainability, 2021 The technical feasibility of valorizing tequila vinasse (TV), a wastewater with high pollution potential, through the production of biogenic hydrogen via dark fermentation, has long been proven in diverse lab-scale reactors that were operated either in batch or continuous mode.

Possible Pollution of Surface Water Bodies with Tequila Vinasses
Water, 2023 The aim of this study was to evaluate the water quality in two streams of the Valles region of Jalisco, Mexico and fully determine if they are being used as tequila vinasse disposal sites. Three sampling campaigns were carried out at eight different points of the two streams that run near tequila factories (TFs). Different physicochemical parameters of

Distilling agro‐extractivism: Agave and tequila production in Mexico
Journal of Agrarian Change, Volume 21, Issue 2, Page 219-241, April 2021., 2021 Abstract This article seeks to challenge the notion that the concept of agro‐extractivism be restricted to crops destined for export with little or no processing. Based on a study of agave and tequila production in Mexico, it argues that the domestic processing of biomass does not change nor necessarily compensate for the negative social and ...

Food waste conversion to microbial polyhydroxyalkanoates
Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 10, Issue 6, Page 1338-1352, November 2017., 2017 Food wastage is a global issue and therefore harbors immense potential to create valuable bioproducts. This article's main focus is to examine the state of the art of converting food‐derived waste into carbon substrates for microbial metabolism and subsequent conversion into PHAs.

The Scientific World Journal, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 We report the semicontinuous, direct (anaerobic sequencing batch reactor operation) hydrogen fermentation of de‐oiled jatropha waste (DJW). The effect of hydraulic retention time (HRT) was studied and results show that the stable and peak hydrogen production rate of 1.48 L/L*d and hydrogen yield of 8.7 mL H2/g volatile solid added were attained when ...

Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2023 Abstract Tequila vinasse, a by-product generated during agave fermentation, is a wastewater characterized by its dark color and composition, which includes water, alcohol, sugars, phenolic compounds, proteins, among others. Its high chemical oxygen demand (COD) and pH levels classify it as hazardous to the soil, plants, and aquatic organisms ...
