Pretreatments to enhance the digestibility of lignocellulosic biomass

TL;DR: Steam pretreatment, lime pret treatment, liquid hot water pretreatments and ammonia based Pretreatments are concluded to be pretreatment with high potentials, providing an improved accessibility of the cellulose for hydrolytic enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Optimisation of the anaerobic digestion of agricultural resources.

TL;DR: Current optimisation techniques associated with anaerobic digestion are reviewed and possible areas where improvements could be made are suggested, including the basic design considerations of a single or multi-stage reactor configuration, the type, power and duration of the mixing regime and the retention of active microbial biomass within the reactor.

Solid-state anaerobic digestion for methane production from organic waste

TL;DR: The principles and applications of the solid-state anaerobic digestion (SS-AD) process are reviewed in this article, and the variation in biogas production yields of different feedstocks is discussed as well as the need for pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass such as crop residues and energy crops.

Pretreatment methods to enhance anaerobic digestion of organic solid waste

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of pretreatment techniques to enhance the anaerobic digestion of organic solid waste, including mechanical, thermal, chemical and biological methods, is presented, in terms of their efficiency, energy balance, environmental sustainability as well as capital, operational and maintenance costs.

Hydrolysis kinetics in anaerobic degradation of particulate organic material: an overview.

TL;DR: It has been shown that models in which hydrolysis is coupled to the growth of hydrolytic bacteria work well at high or at fluctuant organic loading, and new developments in spatially distributed models are considered fundamental to provide new insights in this complex process.
