Efficient poultry manure management: anaerobic digestion with short hydraulic retention time to achieve high methane production

methane production from anaerobic co-digestion of poultry manure

this study investigated the effect of loading and temperature on anaerobic co-digestion of poultry manure with straw in mesophilic conditions. the study was made at lab-scale using 70l reactor with a hrt of 15 days. during the first phase, different loads of 1.0, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 kg vs/m3.d were studied in order to produce biogas. at load of 3.0 kg vs/ m3.d, vs removal and gas product...

Modelling Anaerobic Digestion of Cow Manure to Predict Methane Flow Rate

Anaerobic digestion (AD) of biowastes is one of the most common ways to produce methane-rich biogas, which has considerable potential to replace the fossil fuel used in multiple applications, such as vehicular transportation, internal combustion engines, cogeneration of heat and power systems and many other systems. Many companies are involved in the design and construction of anaerobic digesti...

Poultry Manure : The New Frontier for Anaerobic Digestion

Methane emissions from liquid manure storage – influence of temperature, storage time, substrate type and anaerobic digestion

Feedlot Manure Management Considerations Including Anaerobic Digestion Potential and Mineral Retention

Cattle diet can impact manure quality and quantity, but has minimal impact on methane production from anaerobic digestion of manure. Quality of manure, measured as organic matter (OM) content, does affect methane production and is largely impacted by the environment cattle are housed in and methods used to collect manure. In three anaerobic digestion trials, as the amount of ash contamination o...
