Possible Pollution of Surface Water Bodies with Tequila Vinasses

open access: yesWater, 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

Tequila Still Distillation Fractioned Residual Streams for Use in Biorefinery

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Tequila vinasses is a mixture made from up to six still distillation two-stage process residual effluents. First stage fractions: residual must (60%), heads (0.9%) and tails (20.0%); second stage fractions: non-evaporated (8.0%), heads (0.1%) and tails ...

Generation of Tequila Vinasses, Characterization, Current Disposal Practices and Study Cases of Disposal Methods

open access: yesWater, 2022
Tequila vinasse is a liquid waste generated during the production of tequila, an emblematic alcoholic beverage in Mexico. The objective of this study was to carry out an investigation on the tequila factories located in the state of Jalisco in order to know the location of the factories in the state, the characterization of the vinasses including ...

Biomethane Production and Methanogenic Microbiota Restoration After a pH Failure in an Anaerobic Sequencing Batch Reactor (A-SBR) Treating Tequila Vinasse

open access: yesFermentation
Precise control of operational parameters in anaerobic digestion reactors is crucial to avoid imbalances that could affect biomethane production and alterations in the microbiota.

Integration of Coagulation–flocculation(with Natural Coagulant) to Constructed Wetlands for Color Removal from Tequila Vinasses

open access: yesWater
The aim of this study was to evaluate a natural coagulant, Moringa oleifera seeds (MOC), to reduce the color concentration in treated tequila vinasses (TVs). TV-A was the effluent of horizontal subsurface flow wetlands (HSSFW); TV-B was the effluent of vertical up-flow wetlands (VUFW); and TV-C was the effluent of vertical down-flow constructed ...

Reduction of solids and organic load concentrations in tequila vinasses using a polyacrylamide (pam) polymer flocculant

open access: yes, 2007
This study consisted of three experiments designed to evaluate the practicality of using a cationic polyacrylamide (PAM) polymer flocculant to reduce commonly used aquatic pollution indicators in tequila vinasses. A first experiment with a 2 x 2 factorial arrangement was used to observe the effects on vinasses of five different concentrations of PAM ...

Multispectral and Thermal Imaging for Assessing Tequila Vinasse Evaporation: Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Satellite-Based Observations

open access: yesProcesses
This work aims to assess the droplets produced by a novel evaporation process, proposed as an alternative for managing tequila vinasses, using a spectral camera with three spectral bands and a thermal camera mounted on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). High-resolution satellite images with seven spectral bands complemented this characterization.

Modelling and parameter estimation of a two-stage anaerobic digestion system for the treatment of tequila vinasses

open access: yes, 2013
The estimation of kinetic parameters and yield coefficients of a two-stage anaerobic digestion model based on experimental data obtained from the treatment of tequila vinasses is considered in this paper. The proposed model is derived from mass balances of two fixed-bed up-flow bioreactors where the acidogenic phase takes place in the first bioreactor,

Dark Fermentation Process Response to the Use of Undiluted Tequila Vinasse without Nutrient Supplementation [PDF]

open access: yesSustainability, 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.
