BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to reduce the VS (volatile solid) and recover energy (methane) from thin stillage through mesophilic anaerobic digestion in corn–ethanol plants. The performance of a continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) with different hydraulic retention times (HRTs) was evaluated in this study. RESULTS: The results show no differences in volatile solid (VS) destruction (82–83%) in the reactor with HRTs ranging from 25 to 40 days. The maximum volumetric methane production rate of 1.41 L L?1 day?1 was produced at 25‐day HRT, whereas the maximum methane yield of approximately 0.63 L CH4 g?1 VSfed (0.77 L g?1 VSremoved) was achieved with HRTs between 30 and 40 days. Simulation results using a kinetic model indicate that the reactor needs to be operated for longer than 23 days in order to achieve 80% of maximum methane yield. The techno‐economic potential of a corn–ethanol facility to produce an estimated 57% energy recovery using mesophilic anaerobic digestion has long been overlooked. A corn–ethanol plant integrated with mesophilic anaerobic digestion increases the net energy balance ratio from 1.26 to 1.80. CONCLUSION: Mesophilic anaerobic digestion complements the corn–ethanol business so that the sustainable energy obtained from corn recovery is made more lucrative and renewable.

BACKGROUND: Because of its extreme toxicity for microorganisms, the limonene content of citrus wastes (CWs) has been a major obstacle to the conversion of CWs to biofuels. The main objective of this study was to develop a new process for the utilization of CWs that can be economically feasible when the supply of CW is low. RESULTS: Steam explosion pre‐treatment was applied to improve the anaerobic digestibility of CWs, resulting in a decrease of initial limonene concentration by 94.3%. A methane potential of 0.537 ± 0.001 m3 kg?1 VS (volatile solids) was obtained during the following batch digestion of treated CWs, corresponding to an increase of 426% compared with that of the untreated samples. Long‐term effects of the treatment were further investigated by a semi‐continuous co‐digestion process. A methane production of 0.555 ± 0.0159 m3 CH4 kg?1 VS day?1 was achieved when treated CWs (corresponding to 30% of the VS load) were co‐digested with municipal solid waste. CONCLUSION: The process developed can easily be applied to an existing biogas plant. The equipment cost for this process is estimated to be one million USD when utilizing 10 000 tons CWs year?1. 8.4 L limonene and 107.4 m3 methane can be produced per ton of fresh citrus wastes in this manner.

BACKGROUND: Anaerobic digestion is an alternative technology to achieve the dual benefits of hydrogen production and waste stabilization from kitchen wastes. In this work, the butyric acid stress on anaerobic sludge was investigated in order to improve the tolerance of sludge against organic acids, and to enhance hydrogen accumulation. RESULTS: The tolerance of butyric acid in anaerobic sludge increased with the stress concentration, however, it decreased at concentrations greater than of 4.0 g L?1. The maximum hydrogen yield reached 63.72 mL g?1 VS at 4.0 g L?1 stress, representing an increase of 114% compared with the control group. The concentration of volatile solids (VS) of the sludge and SCOD increased steadily with time up to 20 h. At 4.0 g L?1 butyric acid stress, the maximum activity of β‐glucosidase, BAA‐hydrolysing protease and dehydrogenase enzyme were 14912.1 µmol PNP g?1 TS h?1, 134.14 µmol NH4‐N g?1 TS h?1 and 7316.42 µg TF g?1 TS h?1, which were 2.78, 1.90 and 2.01 times that of the control, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The feasibility of butyric acid stress on anaerobic sludge to increase hydrogen production from kitchen wastes was demonstrated. Remarkably, 4.0 g L?1 butyric acid stress was found to be favorable for improving the tolerance of butyric acid in sludge as well as hydrogen yield in the experiment.

有效处理农村有机生活垃圾(rural organic household waste, ROW)对美化农村环境具有重要意义,在对其进行高浓度厌氧发酵时容易出现酸化和氨氮抑制现象,导致系统稳定性差。目前尚缺乏ROW不同共发酵底物和进料总固体(total solids,TS)浓度对厌氧发酵的影响研究。为提高厌氧发酵性能,减少环境保护压力,本文对ROW不同共发酵底物配比和不同进料浓度下厌氧共发酵特性进行研究,从而优化农村有机生活垃圾厌氧发酵工艺。文中对取自江苏徐州沛县的农村有机生活垃圾和江苏省农业科学院六合动物实验基地的猪粪(PM)、水稻秸秆(RC)进行厌氧共发酵。当发酵底物为ROW和PM时,甲烷产量随着进料总固体含量TS的升高而增加,最高为257.38mL/g VS;当发酵底物为ROW和RC,或者发酵底物为ROW、PM和RC时,进料TS质量分数从8%增加到12%时,甲烷产量随之增加,最高分别为339.59mL/g VS、322.16mL/g VS,当进料TS质量分数继续升高到15% 时,二者产量均出现降低且均低于其他实验组,分别为231.17mL/g VS、194.67mL/g VS。在本文所设置实验条件下,最优共发酵进料为:发酵底物为ROW和RC,生活垃圾与挥发性固体(VS)质量比为1∶1,进料TS质量分数为12%,甲烷产量为339.59mL/g VS。 相似文献

BACKGROUND: Anaerobic co‐digestion of refractory liquid organic wastes is an alternative environmental management strategy with economic benefits arising out of biogas production. Laboratory‐scale experimental investigations were carried out on the anaerobic co‐digestion of two liquid organic wastes, food waste leachate (FWL) and piggery wastewater (PWW). Three important parameters affecting methane yield were chosen for this study, namely, mixing ratio, alkalinity and salinity, which were optimized using response surface methodology. RESULTS: The results were analyzed statistically and the optimum conditions identified as: mixing ratio (FWL: PWW) 33 (in terms of volatile solid, w/w) (2 on v/v), alkalinity 2850 mg CaCO3 L?1, and salinity 3.4 g NaCl L?1. Under the optimum conditions, a cumulative methane yield (CMY) of 310 mL CH4 g?1 VSadded and VS reduction (VSR) of 54% were predicted. Mixing ratio and alkalinity showed the greatest individual and interactive effects on CMY and VSR (P < 0.05). A confirmation experiment under optimum conditions showed a CMY and VSR of 323 mL CH4 g?1 VSadded and 50%, respectively. This was only 1.04% and 1.1%, respectively, different from the predicted values. CONCLUSION: Anaerobic co‐digestion of FWL and PWW carried out under the optimum condition may be a feasible and efficient treatment option for methane production.

The anaerobic digestion of olive mill wastewater (OMW) in a fluidized bed, pretreated with Geotrichum candidum, has been studied. The bioreactor used (volume = 3.5 dm3; biomass concentration = 11.5 g VSS dm?3) maintained satisfactory operation for 4 to 35 days, in terms of hydraulic retention time, and removed 92% of the initial COD. The system was used to develop and test a kinetic model which was subsequently employed to determine growth yield and maintenance coefficient. From the results obtained, the Michaelis-Menten equation accurately described the substrate uptake (i.e. COD removal) in the anaerobic fluidized bed system. Pretreatment of the OMW was found to increase the rate of substrate uptake by a factor of 3.2 when compared to untreated OMW. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: This paper describes the results obtained during the thermophilic/mesophilic temperature phased anaerobic digestion (TPAD) of sewage sludge on a pilot scale. The aim of this research study was not only to optimize the anaerobic digestion process, but also to obtain a digested sludge suitable for agricultural applications according to the legal requirements. RESULTS: Four TPAD assays were carried out: 5/15, 3/15, 3/12 and 3/9 (days/days of solid retention time) with a specific methane production (expressed as LCH4 g?1 VSdestroyed) of 0.77, 0.83, 0.66 and 0.20, respectively. TPAD 3/15 and 3/12 reached pathogen concentrations of less than 1000 MPN g?1 TS (faecal colifoms) and 3 MPN per 4 g TS (Salmonella spp.); therefore, these digested sludges can be considered Class A biosolids, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency. Concentrations of heavy metals rose after the anaerobic digestion of mixed sludge, but the final values were always below the limits required by legal regulations. CONCLUSION: TPAD 3/15 is the best option in terms of organic matter removal, CH4 generation, and process stability. TPAD 3/12 obtained the best final dewaterability and pathogen reduction and in general, showed much better results than those obtained by anaerobic mesophilic control (15 days of SRT).

BACKGROUND: Disintegration was developed as a pretreatment process for sludge to accelerate the digestion processes. Ultrasonic treatment may be a good alternative for sludge disintegration. In this study, different specific energy inputs ranged between 0 and 15 880 kJ kg?1 and very low ultrasonic densities ranged between 0.04 and 0.1 W mL?1 were applied to biological sludge for disintegration purposes. The potential for improving anaerobic digestion through ultrasonic pre‐treatment and the effect of ultrasonic pre‐treatment on the filterability characteristics of sludge were also investigated. RESULTS: 9690 kJ kg?1 TS of supplied energy and very low power density of 0.09 Wm L?1 are efficient for floc disintegration. For 9690 kJ kg?1 TS, 44% higher methane production was achieved than with raw sludge as a result of biochemical methane potential assay. The supernatant characteristics of the sludge were also affected by the ultrasonic pre‐treatment. For 9690 kJ kg?1 TS, the soluble chemical oxygen demand (SCOD), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), total nitrogen (TN), and total phosphorus (TP) in the sludge supernatant increased by 340%, 860%, 716%, and 207.5%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Ultrasonic pre‐treatment is an effective method for biological sludge disintegration even at very low ultrasonic density levels. It leads to increased anaerobic biodegradability but deteriorates the filterability characteristics of biological sludge. Copyright © 2009 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Alkali‐dissolution pretreatment of softwood spruce and hardwood birch to improve ethanol and biogas production was investigated. The pretreatments were carried out at different temperatures between ? 15 and 80 °C with NaOH/thiourea (7/5.5 wt%), NaOH/urea (7/12 wt%), NaOH/urea/thiourea (7/8/6.5 wt%), and NaOH/PEG (7/1 wt%) aqueous solutions. The pretreated materials were then subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis for 72 h. The pretreatments by NaOH/thiourea at ? 15 °C improved the hydrolysis yields of spruce from 11.7% to 57% of theoretical yield, and for birch from 23.1% to 83% of theoretical yield. The enzymatic hydrolysis and fermentation of these pretreated materials by NaOH/thiourea with baker's yeast resulted in 54.0% of theoretical yield compared with 10.9% for untreated spruce and 80.9% of theoretical yield compared with 12.9% for untreated birch. Furthermore, anaerobic digestion of pretreated materials resulted in 0.36 L g?1 VS methane compared with 0.23 L g?1 VS for untreated birch, and 0.21 L g?1 VS compared with 0.03 L g?1 VS for untreated spruce.

A study of the effect of organic volumetric loading rate (BV) on the performance of a down‐flow anaerobic fixed bed reactor (DFAFBR) treating settled piggery waste was carried out at a range of between 1.1 and 6.8 g COD dm?3 d?1. The reactor operated at good removal efficiencies and stability under the operational conditions studied. Logarithmic empirical equations described adequately the removal efficiency for different parameters studied (COD, SCOD, BOD, TS, VS, TSS, VSS and phosphorous). Although process stability was affected by the increase of BV, process failure was not observed. A logarithmic relationship was found to describe the influence of BV on the TVFA/alkalinity ratio (p). A linear correlation was found between the effluent substrate concentration and the values of p and between p and the CO2/CH4 ratio in the biogas. The effect of the hydraulic volumetric loading rate (HV) on the flow pattern of the reactor was evaluated. Dispersion number (Dn) was in the range of 0.17–0.37 for the maximum and minimum values of HV studied, respectively. The ratio between the real and theoretical HRT increased as the HV decreased. These results demonstrate that axial dispersion increased as the HV and the Reynolds number decreased. Due to the hydraulic behaviour of the reactor, the kinetic model developed by Lawrence and McCarty was used for describing the experimental results obtained. Maximum specific substrate removal rate (K), specific organic loading rate constant (KL), microbial decay coefficient (Kd), microbial yield coefficient (Y), maximum microbial growth rate (UM) and saturation constant (KS) were found to be: 3.1 (g COD g VSS?1 d?1), 3.0 (g COD g VSS?1 d?1), 0.062 (d?1), 0.15 (g VSS g COD removed?1), 0.39 (d?1) and 2.6 (g SCOD dm?3), respectively.

The hybrid anaerobic solid–liquid (HASL) system was developed to be used in industrial‐scale operations to minimize the amount of food waste for disposal in Singapore. Thermal pre‐treatment of food waste at 70 °C for 2 h (experiment E1) or at 150 °C for 1 h (experiment E2) facilitated the hydrolytic and acidogenic processes in the acidogenic reactor and methanogenesis in the methanogenic reactor in the HASL system. The highest dissolved chemical oxygen demands in the effluents from the acidogenic reactors were 17 575, 19 980 and 24 235 mg dm?3 in the control with food waste without thermal pre‐treatment and experiments E1 and E2, respectively. The maximum concentrations of methanogens in the methanogenic reactor were 2.3 × 107, 3.8 × 107, 4.3 × 107 cells cm?3 for the control and experiments E1 and E2, respectively. However, the performances of the methanogenic phase in terms of specific activity of methanogens did not differ significantly for the control and experiments E1 and E2. Use of thermally pre‐treated food waste halved the time to produce the same quantity of methane in comparison with anaerobic digestion of fresh food waste. The fluorescent measurements of co‐enzyme F420 and oligonucleotide probe Arc915 specifically bound (hybridized) with 16S rRNA were used for monitoring of methanogens during anaerobic digestion of food waste. There was a linear correlation between these parameters and the concentration of methanogens in the effluent from the methanogenic reactor. Copyright © 2005 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

A new effluent treatment scheme is proposed for treating palm oil mill effluent based on coagulation and anaerobic digestion of coagulated sludge. The effectiveness of anionic (N9901) and cationic (N9907) polyelectrolytes manufactured by NALCO (Malaysia) was evaluated both as coagulant and coagulant aid. The results showed that the anionic and cationic polyelectrolytes were best suited as a coagulant aid, and the cationic polyelectrolyte showed better performance than the anionic polyelectrolyte. For an influent chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration of 59 700 mg L?1 at an alum dosage of 1700 mg L?1, the residual COD, suspended solid removal, sludge volume and pH were found to be 39 665 mg L?1, 87%, 260 mL L?1 and 6.3, respectively. For the above influent COD and alum dosage with the addition of 2 mg L?1 of cationic polyelectrolyte as coagulant aid, the results were 30 870 mg L?1, 90%, 240 mL L?1 and 6.2, respectively. The sludge resulting from the coagulation process using alum as coagulant and cationic polyelectrolyte as coagulant aid was tested for its digestibility in an anaerobic digester. The quantity of biogas generated per gram of volatile solids (VS) destroyed at a loading rate of 26.7 ± 0.5 and 35.2 ± 0.4 g VS L?1 d?1 was found to be 0.68 and 0.72 L g?1 VS destroyed. The anaerobic biomass when subjected to varying alum dosage in the coagulated palm oil sludge did not exhibit inhibition as the digester performance was in conformity with the regular treatment process Copyright © 2006 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

Methane production by anaerobic digestion of kelp is a relatively new approach to augmenting the national gas supply. Digestion of the giant marine kelp Macrocystis pyrifera, investigated in a series of bench-scale experiments at the Institute of Gas Technology (IGT), is reported. Conducted with both untreated and chemically pretreated plants, the tests have evaluated the effects of major limits on bioconversion of kelp, including temperature, indigenous salt concentration, external nutrients, inocula source, loading, residence time, manner of mixing and frequency of feeding. A detailed chemical characterisation of the kelp samples is presented. Raw-kelp digestion was not limited by nitrogen or phosphorus. Temperature ranges of 35–40°C and 50–55°C were found to be optimum for mesophilic and thermophilic digestion of raw kelp. The mesophilic methane yield in the semicontinuous mode was about 4.5 SCF/lb (280.94 cm3 g?1) of volatile solids (VS) added compared with a thermophilic methane yield of 2.4 SCF/lb (149.83 cm3 g?1) of VS added. The mesophilic organisms could be acclimatised to a salt concentration that has a conductivity of 43 000 μmho cm?1 without any deleterious effect. Thermophilic methanogens were more sensitive to high salt concentrations than the mesophilic organisms. Raw kelp had an estimated ultimate biodegradability of 80%. Mannitol and algin were the most biodegradable components. 相似文献

A study of the effect of organic loading rate on the performance of anaerobic digestion of two‐phase olive mill solid residue (OMSR) was carried out in a laboratory‐scale completely stirred tank reactor. The reactor was operated at an influent substrate concentration of 162 g chemical oxygen demand (COD) dm?3. The organic loading rate (OLR) varied between 0.8 and 11.0 g COD dm?3 d?1. COD removal efficiency decreased from 97.0% to 82.6% when the OLR increased from 0.8 to 8.3 g COD dm?3 d?1. It was found that OLRs higher than 9.2 g COD dm?3 d?1 favoured process failure, decreasing pH, COD removal efficiency and methane production rates (QM). Empirical equations described the effect of OLR on the process stability and the effect of soluble organic matter concentration on the total volatile fatty acids (TVFA)/total alkalinity (TAlk) ratio (ρ). The results obtained demonstrated that rates of substrate uptake were correlated with concentration of biodegradable COD, through an equation of the Michaelis–Menten type. The kinetic equation obtained was used to simulate the anaerobic digestion process of this residue and to obtain the theoretical COD degradation rates in the reactor. The small deviations obtained (equal to or lower than 10%) between values calculated through the model and experimental values suggest that the proposed model predicts the behaviour of the reactor accurately.

The effect of bioaugmentation with an anaerobic lipolytic bacterial strain on the anaerobic digestion of restaurant lipid‐rich waste was studied in batch experiments with a model waste containing 10% lipids (triolein) under two sets of experimental conditions: (A) methanogenic conditions, and (B) initially acidogenic conditions in the presence of only the lipolytic strain biomass (4 days), followed by methanogenic conditions. The bioaugmenting lipolytic strain, Clostridium lundense (DSM 17049T), was isolated from bovine rumen. The highest lipolytic activity was detected at the beginning of the experiments. A higher methane production rate, 27.7 cm3 CH4(STP) g?1 VSadded day?1 (VS, volatile solids) was observed in experiment A with the presence of the bioaugmenting lipolytic strain under methanogenic conditions. The highest initial oleate concentration, 99% of the total oleate contained in the substrate, was observed in the experiments with the bioaugmenting lipolytic strain under treatment A conditions; the levels of palmitate and stearate were also higher until day 15, indicating that the bioaugmentation strategy improved the hydrolysis of the lipid fraction. In general, the results indicated that degradation of the long chain fatty acids (LCFAs) controlled the digestion process. Copyright © 2006 Society of Chemical Industry 相似文献

A kinetic study of the anaerobic digestion of soft drink wastewater was undertaken, using bioreactors containing various suspended supports (bentonite, zeolite, sepiolite, saponite and polyurethane foam), on to which the microorganisms effecting the purification were immobilized. Assuming the overall anaerobic digestion process conforms to first-order kinetics, the specific rate constants, K0, derived from the reactors with saponite and sepiolite (magnesium silicates) were approximately twice those from bentonite and zeolite (aluminium silicates) and almost five times higher than in the control reactor (without support); the polyurethane support showed an intermediate behaviour. The methanogenic activity increased linearly with COD load, with saponite and sepiolite supports showing the highest values. The average yield coefficient of methane was 325 cm3 CH4 STP g?1 COD and the percentage elimination of COD was 77·8%; these values were not significantly altered by the type of support used. 相似文献

AbstractThe anionic detergent sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS) inhibits anaerobic solid waste fermentation process in mesophilic anaerobic digesters. In this study, the effect SDBS on the performance of anaerobic digestion (AD) of mixture of sewage sludge, food waste, and green waste serving as substrate was investigated. The batch experiments were conducted with five SDBS concentrations namely 0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.05, 0.1, and 0.2?g/g (SDBS/dry sludge) under mesophilic condition (37?±?1?°C) and lasted for 63?days. The results showed that the presence of SDBS remarkably increased the release of protein and carbohydrate, and resulting in the serious accumulation of volatile fatty acids (VFAs), especially for propionate accumulation. Likewise, the observed variations in enzyme activities associated with different stage of AD revealed that methanogenesis was quite sensitive to SDBS and inhibited by the increase of SDBS addition. Meanwhile, the presence of SDBS decreased the pH value and the concentration of free ammonia, but increased the concentration of NH4+-N. Furthermore, the production of biogas was reduced by SDBS. In conclusion, SDBS addition has a negative impact on anaerobic co-digestion. On the one hand, methanogens were severely inhibited and biogas yield decreased remarkably, on the other hand, the accumulation of VFAs was excessive. Thus, the presence of surfactant (SDBS) in the municipal organic waste should be concerned during the waste disposal via anaerobic digestion process. 相似文献

Two-Stage Fungal Pre-Treatment for Improved Biogas Production from Sisal Leaf Decortication Residues
Mutemi Muthangya Anthony Manoni Mshandete Amelia Kajumulo Kivaisi 《International journal of molecular sciences》2009,10(11):4805-4815
Sisal leaf decortications residue (SLDR) is amongst the most abundant agro-industrial residues in Tanzania and is a good feedstock for biogas production. Pre-treatment of the residue prior to its anaerobic digestion (AD) was investigated using a two-stage pre-treatment approach with two fungal strains, CCHT-1 and Trichoderma reesei in succession in anaerobic batch bioreactors. AD of the pre-treated residue with CCTH-1 at 10% (wet weight inoculum/SLDR) inoculum concentration incubated for four days followed by incubation for eight days with 25% (wet weight inoculum/SLDR) of T. reesei gave a methane yield of 0.292 ± 0.04 m3 CH4/kg volatile solids (VS)added. On reversing the pre-treatment succession of the fungal inocula using the same parameters followed by AD, methane yield decreased by about 55%. Generally, an increment in the range of 30–101% in methane yield in comparison to the un-treated SLDR was obtained. The results confirmed the potential of CCHT-1 followed by Trichoderma reesei fungi pre-treatment prior to AD to achieve significant improvement in biogas production from SLDR. 相似文献
