Palm oil is one of the leading agricultural crops in the world, as it dominates 34% of the global vegetable oil market, with approximately 64.6*103 million kgs of production in 2017. However, along with its breakthrough, the generation of palm oil mill effluent (POME) as uncontrolled waste has becom...

Optimizing methane production from food waste (FW) efficiently is always a hot topic in the field of anaerobic digestion (AD). In this study we aimed to improve the conversion of organics to methane by using CaO2 and magnetite to enhance the semi-continuous AD of food waste. Under the organic load o...

This study aims to enhance hydrolysis and anaerobic digestion of corn cob (CC) by using food waste (FW) pretreatment. FW, which tends to be acidification in fermentation, was applied in this process as an acid-like agent to accelerate lignocellulose hydrolysis, aiming to promote methane yield in fur...

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a viable and cost-effective method for converting organic waste into usable renewable energy. The efficiency of organic waste digestion, nonetheless, is limited due to inhibition and instability. Accordingly, biochar is an effective method for improving the efficiency of ...

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a favorable way to convert organic pollutants, such as food waste (FW), into clean energy through microbial action. This work adopted a side-stream thermophilic anaerobic digestion (STA) strategy to improve a digestive system's efficiency and stability. Results showed tha...

Raw biogas generated in the anaerobic digestion (AD) process contains several undesired constituents such as H2S, CO2, NH3, siloxanes and VOCs. These gases affect the direct application of biogas, and are a prime concern in biogas utilization processes. Conventional physico-chemical biogas purificat...

Waste management is one of the greatest global challenges, for which one reason is the composition of waste, which varies not only from one region to another but also over time. Recent studies considered waste treatment options for the developed world, where management schemes include waste to hydro...

Poultry litter (a mixture of rice hulls, sawdust and chicken excreta of broilers) mixed with the co-substrate cow dung and poultry droppings was evaluated under anaerobic conditions for the production of biogas (methane). Four laboratory scale reactors, R1, R2, R3 and R4, were set up with different ...

Abstract Foaming negatively affects anaerobic digestion of food waste (FW). To identify the causes of foaming, reactor performance and microbial community dynamics were investigated in three mesophilic digesters treating FW. The digesters were operated under different modes, and foaming was induced ...
