Fertirrigation With Sugarcane Vinasse: Foreseeing Potential Impacts on Soil and Water Resources Through Vinasse Characterization [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Science and Health - Part A Toxic/Hazardous Substances and Environmental Engineering, 2017
This paper reports the characterization of the polluting potential of sugarcane vinasse, the main wastewater from ethanol production. Compositional data from vinasse samples collected from sugarcane biorefineries were used to predict negative effects on the soil, water resources and crops potentially associated with fertirrigation, the primary final ...

Tests of Media With Vinasse for Chlamydomonas reinhardii for Possible Reduction in Vinasse Pollution

Bioresource Technology, 1992
In this work the effects of vinasse at various concentrations (1, 2·5, 5, 10 and 25%) on some growth parameters of Chlamydomonas reinhardii have been investigated. It was seen that it causes increments in both the content of photosynthetic pigments and the cell number of this species at low concentrations (1–5%), but decreased the cell number ...

Development of a Vinasse Nutritive Solution for Hydroponics

Journal of Environmental Management, 2013
Vinasse is a residue that originates from the distillation of fuel alcohol. However, it contains a relative amount of nutrients. The aim of this work was to develop a nutritive solution using vinasse and to compare it with a commercial solution for the cultivation of lettuce, watercress and rocket.

Vinasses: characterization and treatments

Waste Management & Research: The Journal for a Sustainable Circular Economy, 2011
The final products of the ethanol industry are alcoholic beverages, industrial ethanol and biofuels. They are produced by the same production process, which includes fermentation and distillation of raw materials which come from plant biomass. At the end of the distillation process a waste effluent is obtained called vinasse or stillage.

Treatment of mezcal vinasses: A review

Journal of Biotechnology, 2012
Mexican distilleries produce near eight million liters of mezcal per year, and generate about 90 million liters of mezcal vinasses (MV). This acidic liquid waste is very aggressive to the environment because of its high content of toxic and recalcitrant organic matter. As a result, treatment is necessary before discharge to water bodies.

Demineralisation of vinasse by electrodialysis

Journal of Food Engineering, 1988
Abstract The purpose of this study was to examine the possibility of demineralising vinasse by electrodialysis. A prototype laboratory electrodialyzer was used with ‘Selemion’ (Asahi Glass Co) ion-exchange membranes at a constant current density between 5 and 15 mA cm −2 .

Kinetic analysis of the anaerobic digestion of untreated vinasses and vinasses previously treated with Penicillium decumbens

Journal of Environmental Management, 2006
A kinetic study was carried out on the anaerobic digestion of untreated vinasses and vinasses previously fermented with Penicillium decumbens. Two 1-l volume continuous-flow stirred tank reactors (CFSTR) operating at mesophilic temperature (35 degrees C) were used for the study. One reactor was fed with untreated vinasses (COD concentration of 80.5 g/l)

Selection of vinasse degrading microorganisms

World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2010
Vinasse is a highly colored effluent with a high pollutant potential when disposed in the environment. Assays for decolorization of vinasse were performed, selecting the fungus Pleurotus sajor-caju CCB 020. The discoloration was cocominant with the increase of the activities of laccase, manganese-peroxidase and peroxidases. P. sajor-caju demonstrated a

Biogas Production Within the Bioethanol Production Chain: Use of Co-Substrates for Anaerobic Digestion of Sugar Beet Vinasse

open access: yesBioresource Technology, 2015
Bioethanol production generates large amounts of vinasse, which is suitable for biogas production. In this study, the anaerobic digestion of sugar beet vinasse was optimised using continuous stirred-tank reactors (CSTR) supplemented either with lime ...

Sugarcane vinasse biogas generation: An evaluation

Asian Journal of Multidimensional Research, 2021
Vinasse is regarded as the most significant source of contamination in the sugarcane ethanol business. Vinasse may be used to make fertilizer, although it is deficient in macronutrients and micronutrients. It is, on the other hand, one of the resources with a high biogas generation potential.
