Journal ArticleDOI
Pre-treatment and anaerobic digestion of food waste for high rate methane production – A review
TL;DR: In this paper, food waste with high decomposition potential can be successfully digested anaerobically for the production of biogas, which can be used for electricity production and the final digested sludge as a fertilizer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of bioavailability and leachability of heavy metals during rotary drum composting of green waste (Water hyacinth)
Jiwan Singh,Ajay S. Kalamdhad +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of physic-chemical parameters such as pH, temperature and organic matter content on distribution of heavy metal bioavailability and leachability during water hyacinth composting was investigated in the form of water soluble and diethylenetriamine penta-acetic acid extractable.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rotary drum composting of vegetable waste and tree leaves.
TL;DR: Two conventional composting methods namely windrow (M1) and vermicomposting (M2) tried for maturation of primary stabilized compost were tried and it was suggested that M2 was found suitable in delivering fine grained, better quality matured compost within 20 days of maturation period.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review on enhanced biogas production from anaerobic digestion of lignocellulosic biomass by different enhancement techniques
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of these techniques on lignocellulosic degradation, synergistic interaction with high C/N ratio feedstock and improving the buffering capacity by inoculum ratio optimization is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Concentration and speciation of heavy metals during water hyacinth composting
Jiwan Singh,Ajay S. Kalamdhad +1 more
TL;DR: It can be concluded that the appropriate proportion of cattle manure addition (Trial 4) significantly reduced the mobile and easily available fractions (exchangeable and carbonate fractions) during the composting process.
