Potential Biogas Production Generated by Mono- and Co-digestion of Food Waste and Fruit Waste (Durian Shell, Dragon Fruit and Pineapple Peel) in Different Mixture Ratio under Anaerobic Condition

Effects of mixture ratio on anaerobic co-digestion with fruit and vegetable waste and food waste of China.

The biochemical methane potentials for typical fruit and vegetable waste (FVW) and food waste (FW) from a northern China city were investigated, which were 0.30, 0.56 m3 CH4/kgVS (volatile solids) with biodegradabilities of 59.3% and 83.6%, respectively. Individual anaerobic digestion testes of FVW and FW we re conducted at the organic loading rate (OLR) of 3 k g VS/(m3.day) using a lab-scale c...

Bioconversion of Pineapple Solid Waste under Anaerobic Condition through Biogas Production

Biogas production from pineapple peel was to preliminary study for value added to this agro-industrial solid waste. The objective of this research was to fine the optimum condition for maximum biogas production. The experiments were performed in a lab-scale of 6 liters of bioreactors at ambient temperature (approx. 30 o C). The biogas production was conducted under single stage batch processes ...

Biogas Production under Co-digestion of Food Waste with Sewage Sludge

Inhibition of Thermophilic Anaerobic Digestion of Waste Food by Long Chain Fatty Acids and Propionate

Co-digestion of Food Waste and Human Excreta for Biogas Production

The ever increasing cost of fossil fuels and its attendant pollution menace has provided the pedigree to consider alternative sources of energy. An investigation was launched into the design and construction of an Anaerobic Digester system from locally available raw materials using local technology and the production of biogas from food wastes and Human excreta generated within a University cam...
