Biogas production in an anaerobic sequencing batch reactor by using tequila vinasses: effect of pH and temperature

Water Science and Technology, 2015
In recent years, anaerobic digestion has been recognized as a suitable alternative for tequila vinasses treatment due to its high energy recovery and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency. However, key factors such as the lack of suitable monitoring schemes and the presence of load disturbances, which may induce unstable operating conditions ...

Hydrogen peroxide formation in carbon clothes for enhancement of an electro-oxidation tertiary treatment for tequila vinasse wastewater

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2023
Carbon-based electrodes have been extensively used as cathodes for the electro-generation of H₂O₂, which is used in the production of the hydroxyl radical •OH to mineralize organic compounds in several types of wastewater. Carbon cloth has been also used in combination with activated carbon for the combined adsorption and oxidation of persistent ...

Plant Growth-Promoting and Tequila Vinasse-Resistant Bacterial Strains

Microbiology Research
Tequila vinasse, a byproduct of the tequila industry, is frequently discharged into water bodies or agricultural fields, posing significant ecological and human health risks. Bacterial communities that inhabit these agricultural fields have developed mechanisms to utilize tequila vinasse as a potential nutrient source and to promote plant growth.

Use of tequila vinasses as carbon source and electron donor for biological nitrate removal

, 2012
Tequila vinasses represent a pollution problem in Mexico, while nitrate contamination is an environmental problem world-wide. Carbon sources contained in vinasses could serve as electron donors for biological nitrate removal while nitrates are added as ...

Anaerobic digestion of the vinasses from the fermentation of Agave tequilana Weber to tequila: The effect of pH, temperature and hydraulic retention time on the production of hydrogen and methane

, 2009
The objective of this work was to study the effect of three operational parameters (pH, hydraulic retention time (HRT) and growing temperature) on a semi-continuous bioreactor treating Tequila's vinasses by anaerobic digestion (AD).
