[ 1 ] - Microwave Pretreatment of Fresh Water Hyacinth (Eichhornia Crassipes) in Batch Anaerobic Digestion Tank (RESEARCH NOTE)

The purpose of the research was to study the effect of microwave power inpretreatment of fresh waterhyacinth on biogas production. The variations of microwave power levels are 240; 400; 560 and 800 W. The variations of microwave heating time are 5; 7 and 9 min. The unpretreated fresh water hyacinth are used as control. The result of research showed that the microwave pretreatment of fresh water...
