Biogas residue of Spartina alterniflora treated by NaOH solution for 48h at room temperature was used for secondary anaerobic digestion with TS loading rates were 8%, 10%, 12% at (35 +/- 1) degrees C. The biogas yield, pH, and volatile fatty acid (VFA) were analyzed during the anaerobic digestion. The peak of daily gas production were 10, 14, 13 mL x g(-1) and the rates of cumulate gas production were 217, 227, 228 mL x g(-1) respectively. The methane content exceeded 65% and the lowest pH value was 7.04 during the process. The concentrations of acetic acid concentrations were 3 364, 3 286, 5 728 mg x L(-1) respectively while propionic acid and butyric acid concentrations were below 1 100 mg x L(-1). Biogas residue as a non-degradation organic compound with high potential biogas yield was decomposed slowly and no acid accumulation was not observed.

With the rapid growth of large-scale livestock farming in China, the safe disposal and resource utilization of anaerobic biogas residue (BR) have become critical challenges. This study systematically investigated the temperature-dependent (400-700 °C) transformation of piggery biogas residue pyrolysis products (biochar, tar/wood vinegar, pyrolysis gases) and their environmental risks. Results show that pyrolysis temperature significantly affects product distribution and properties: At 600 °C, biochar exhibits the maximum specific surface area (38.

To meaningfully broaden the supply of fuels for the transportation sector, biofuel production must be scaled up and this requires a wider array of biomass feedstocks, including agricultural residues and organic waste. Rather than pursuing conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to fuels and anaerobic digestion of wastes as separate pathways, there are economic and environmental advantages associated with integrating these processes in a single facility. However, existing research rarely goes beyond carbon footprints in quantifying the effects of such a shift in bioenergy production.

The genera and comprise thermophilic, spore-forming bacteria. The extraordinary heat resistance of their spores, together with their ability to form biofilms and produce thermostable enzymes, makes them a relevant cause of spoilage in shelf-stable, heat-treated products like dairy and canned foods. However, these same biological traits offer valuable opportunities for the food industry.

The hydrothermal filtrate of antibiotic fermentation residue contains high levels of organic nitrogen, thereby increasing the risk of ammonia inhibition during anaerobic digestion processes. An upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) integrated with a side-stream membrane contactor (SSMC) with developed for simultaneous biogas production and nitrogen recovery. The methane conversion efficiency stabilized at 75 % ± 2 % during 290 days, and the ammonia nitrogen recovery efficiency achieved over 73 %.
