TLDR
The model offers an effective way to predict the gas production from full-scale digesters running at 35°C, although constants derived from one mode of running should not be used for the other.

A comprehensive review on anaerobic digestion of organic fraction of municipal solid waste

TL;DR: In this article, the authors comprehensively review the anaerobic digestion (AD) process utilising the organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW) substrate and find that the continuous digestion with thermophilic temperatures is the best condition for high solid AD process.
Journal ArticleDOI

What type of digester configurations should be employed to produce biomethane from grass silage

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the literature on grass biomethane production in the scientific literature and in practice at a commercial scale, including a comparison of different technologies and combinations of such technologies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anaerobic digestion of organic fraction of municipal solid waste combining two pretreatment modalities, high temperature microwave and hydrogen peroxide.

TL;DR: Evaluated mesophilic batch AD performance in terms of biogas production, as well as changes in the characteristics of the OFMSW post digestion, found that combining MW and H(2)O(2), heating in presence or absence of hydrogen peroxide did not have a positive impact on OF MSW stabilization and enhanced biogAS production.

Biogas production from llama and cow manure at high altitude

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of pressure (495 and 760 mmHg), temperature (11 and 35 degrees C), hydraulic retention time (20 and 50 days), and manure content in the slurry were evaluated with respect to productivity and methane yields based on two 2(4-1) fractional factorial designs with 8 treatments for each kind of manure.

Semi-continuous anaerobic co-digestion of sugar beet byproduct and pig manure: Effect of the organic loading rate (OLR) on process performance

TL;DR: Anaerobic co-digestion of dried pellet of exhausted sugar beet cossettes with pig manure was investigated in a semi-continuous stirred tank reactor (SSTR) under mesophilic conditions to evaluate the methane productivities and volatile solids removal.

Temperature effects on anaerobic fermentation of domestic refuse

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present reaction rate constants for anaerobic fermentation of domestic refuse and evaluate the effect of temperature on the rate of methane fermentation using the Monod model.

Kinetics of methane fermentation

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of temperature, loading rate, and influent substrate concentration on methane fermentation kinetics were discussed, and these relationships were used to predict the rate of methane production of a pilot-scale fermentor.

Mesophilic anaerobic digestion of dairy cow slurry on a farm scale: First comparisons between digestion before and after solids separation

TL;DR: In this paper, the mesophilic digestion of dairy cow slurry was compared with the digestion of separated slurry at 20 d and 15 d retention times, respectively, and the results showed that similar performance to that previously reported for laboratory and pilot scale digesters can be obtained for a farm-scale plant.
