Continuous co-digestion of cattle slurry with fruit and vegetable wastes and chicken manure
TL;DR: In this paper, a continuously stirred tank was used as a mesophilic anaerobic reactor to examine the effect of adding the FVW and CM to a system which was digesting cattle slurry.
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.

Substrate utilization kinetic model for biological treatment process
Y. R. Chen,Andrew G. Hashimoto +1 more
TL;DR: This study confirms previous reports that the effluent quality of biological treatment systems for organic wastes depends on influent organic waste concentration and shows that the kinetic parameters vary with temperature, while the refractory coefficient remains fairly constant.

Two-phase methanization of solid vegetable wastes
D. Verrier,F. Roy,G. Albagnac +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, single and two-phase anaerobic digestion of vegetable solid wastes were compared at laboratory scale, and mesophilic and thermophilic liquefaction and acidogenesis were shown to be maximal when the pH was maintained at approximately 6·5 in the reactor.

Laboratory scale anaerobic digestion of fruit and vegetable solid waste
TL;DR: Anaerobic digestions that were fed waste apple, corn cobs, apple press cake, extracted sugarbeet pulp, pineapple pressings or asparagus waste were stable in trials lasting up to 226 days as mentioned in this paper.

State of the art of R&D in the anaerobic digestion process of municipal solid waste in Europe
TL;DR: The state of the art of R&D in the field of anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste in Europe is reviewed in this article, where a comparison is made of the quality and quantity of refuse produced in different European countries using data available in recent literature.
