Journal ArticleDOI

Evaluation of the efficacy of upflow anaerobic sludge blanket reactor in removal of colour and reduction of COD in real textile wastewater

TL;DR: It is concluded that UASB reactor system can effectively be used in the treatment of textile wastewater for the removal of colour and in the reduction of COD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Enhancing biogas generation performance from food wastes by high-solids thermophilic anaerobic digestion: Effect of pH adjustment

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of pH adjustment on biogas generation from food wastes during HS-AD was investigated, and the results indicated that the cumulative Biogas yield, cumulative methane yield and methane content in the group with pH of 8 reached their maxima of 322.0, 171.0 and 53.1%, which were 1.49, 7.57 and 5.06 times higher than pH uncontrolled group, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

In situ volatile fatty acids influence biogas generation from kitchen wastes by anaerobic digestion

TL;DR: The results showed that the maximum specific methane production was 328.3 ml g TS(-1), and acetic acid was the main inhibitor in methanogenesis, and methanogenic microbial community changed significantly, and few species grew well under excessive organic loads.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tolerance response to in situ ammonia stress in a pilot-scale anaerobic digestion reactor for alleviating ammonia inhibition.

TL;DR: The results of high-throughput 16S rDNA sequencing showed that ammonia stress increased the relative abundance of Firmicutes bacteria and hydrogenotrophic methanogens but decreased the abundance of acetotrophic meethanogens, which was proposed to be an in situ response strategy for ammonia stress adaptation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Coupling of the hydrogen and polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) production through anaerobic digestion from Taihu blue algae.

TL;DR: It was found that the larger the pumping rate of carbon and nitrogen sources supply, the higher the yield of DCW and PHA could be expected by Bacillus cereus.
