TL;DR: The aim of this paper is primarily to review the recent literature about the occurrence of both acetotrophic and hydrogenotrophic methanogens during anaerobic conversion of particulate biomass to methane (not wastewater treatment), while this review does not cover the activity of the acetate oxidizing bacteria.

TL;DR: In this article, a single-stage continuous anaerobic conversion of sugar beet silage without manure to methane was investigated in a laboratory-scale mesophilic biogas digester.

TL;DR: The primary aim of this review paper is to summarize the most recent research activities covering production of methane and hydrogen via both conventional single and high-rate two-phase anaerobic digestion processes of natural sources of biomass.

TL;DR: Investigation of two lab-scale, mesophilic anaerobic digesters operated simultaneously for continuous production of biogas from fodder beet silage as mono-substrate found phosphate seems to be the limiting macro-nutrient forAnaerobic digestion of fodder beetsilage, especially under high loading conditions.

TL;DR: A fuzzy logic control (FLC) system was developed at the Hamburg University of Applied Sciences for operation of biogas reactors running on energy crops and proved to be reliable during the long term fermentation studies over 3 years in one‐stage, completely stirred tank reactors.
