The anaerobic digestion of solid organic waste
TL;DR: This manuscript provides a broad overview of the digestibility and energy production (biogas) yield of a range of substrates and the digester configurations that achieve these yields.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comprehensive overview of elements in bioremediation
TL;DR: The various in situ and ex situ bioremediation techniques are discussed and elaborate on the anaerobic digestion technology, phytoremediations, hyperaccumulation, composting and biosorption for their effectiveness in the biotreatment, stabilization and eventually overall remediation of contaminated strata and environments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Methanogens: biochemical background and biotechnological applications.
TL;DR: This review summarizes the biochemical and metabolic background of methanogenesis as well as the latest technical applications of meethanogens to give a sufficient overview over the topic to both, biologists and engineers handling biological or bioelectrochemical meethanogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Different aspects of dry anaerobic digestion for bio-energy: An overview
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided different aspects for bio-energy production through dry anaerobic digestion suggested by different researchers and concluded that long term research and development for improvement and optimization of operational parameters in DAD is necessary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of heavy metals as stress factors on anaerobic digestion processes and biogas production from biomass
Ackmez Mudhoo,Sanjay Kumar +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that the severity of heavy metal inhibition depends upon factors like metal concentration in a soluble, ionic form in the solution, type of metal species, and amount and distribution of biomass in the digester or chain of biochemical reactions which constitute the anaerobic digestion process.

Anaerobic digestion of biomass for methane production: a review
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the extensive literature data has been tabulated and ranked under various categories and the influence of several parameters on the methane potential of the feedstocks are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaerobic digestion of biomass for methane production: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the literature on anaerobic microbial conversion of biomass to methane has been presented, highlighting the urgent need for evaluating the inumerable unexplored genera of plants as potential sources for methane production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bioreactor performance in anaerobic digestion of fruit and vegetable wastes
TL;DR: Continuous two-phase systems appear as more highly efficient technologies for anaerobic digestion of FVW, their greatest advantage lies in the buffering of the organic loading rate taking place in the first stage, allowing a more constant feeding rate of the methanogenic second stage.
Renewable methane from anaerobic digestion of biomass.
TL;DR: In this article, anaerobic digestion of energy crops and organic wastes is used to produce a clean fuel from renewable feedstocks, which would replace fossil fuel-derived energy and reduce environmental impacts including global warming and acid rain.
