Article Abstract
With the accelerated construction of biogas plants, the amount of biogas residues are expanding. Composting has been widely implemented to deal with biogas residues. Aeration regulation is the main factor affecting the post-composting treatment of biogas residues as high-quality fertilizer or soil amendment. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the impact of different aeration regulations on full-scale biogas residues compost maturity by controlling oxygen concentration under micro-aeration and aeration conditions. Results showed that micro-aerobic extended the thermophilic stage of 17 days at above 55 ℃ and facilitated the mineralization process of organic nitrogen into nitrate nitrogen to retain higher N nutrition levels compared to aerobic treatment. For biogas residues with high moisture, aeration should be regulated at different full-scale composting stages. Total organic carbon (TOC), NH-N, NO-N, total potassium (TK), total phosphorus (TP) and the germination index (GI) could be used to evaluate stabilization, fertilizer efficiency and phytotoxicity of compost with frequent monitoring times. However, seedling growth trials were still necessary in full-scale composting plants when changing of composting process or biogas residues feedstock.

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 %.
