Article Abstract
High ammonia concentration in wastewater can hinder methane production rate in anaerobic digestion (AD)-microbial electrosynthesis systems (ADMES). To address this issue, a dual-chamber reactor was fabricated using an anion exchange membrane (AEM) to separate the dark-fermentation (DF) and ADMES process, preventing ammonia migration from the DF chamber to the ADMES chamber. As a result, the DF-ADMES achieved a high methane yield based on chemical oxygen demand (COD) of 0.35 L CH/gCOD compared to control operation AD (0.23 L CH/gCOD) and ADMES (0.30 L CH/gCOD). Additionally, hydrogen could be recovered from the DF chamber which improved the energy efficiency of the DF-ADMES reactor (91.7 %) as compared to control AD (53.4 %) and ADMES (71.9 %). Thus, a dual-chamber DF-ADMES with an AEM separator could be a feasible design for scalable treatment of high nitrogen-containing wastewater and high bioenergy recovery.

Anaerobic digestion of waste activated sludge is inherently limited by the recalcitrance of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) and microbial cell envelopes. This study developed an innovative dual pretreatment method integrating sodium disilicate (SD) with thermal hydrolysis (TH) to overcome barriers to biomass degradation. The synergistic effect of SD and TH significantly increased methane yield by 93.

This study investigates the application of magnetite (FeO) and polyaniline (PANI)-functionalized PVDF membranes in anaerobic membrane bioreactors (AnMBRs) for fouling mitigation and bioenergy recovery. Four membranes (PVDF, PANI/PVDF, FeO/PVDF, and FeO@PANI/PVDF) were evaluated over 250 days at fluxes of 2, 4, and 6 LMH. Modified membranes significantly reduced early-stage fouling, with FeO@PANI/PVDF achieving the lowest rate (0.

The cellulolytic bacteria are crucial for applications in animal feeds, food processing, and bioenergy production. However, isolation of these bacteria from the microbial community has been challenging due to limitations in current methodologies. This study introduces a novel cellulose-functionalized magnetic nanoparticle-mediated isolation technique designed to enhance the recovery of cellulolytic bacteria.

This study investigates methane production from the mono-digestion of dairy wastewater (DWW) and hydrogen production from the co-digestion of DWW and crude glycerol (CG), both of which are abundantly available in India. In this study, ultrasonication (US) and hydrodynamic cavitation (HC) were employed as pretreatment methods for DWW prior to mono and co-anaerobic digestion, with the aim of enhancing methane and hydrogen production. The results show that these methods significantly improve methane yield, offering a sustainable solution for efficient bioenergy recovery from organic waste.

Transitioning to a bioeconomy that makes use of low-emission and waste feedstocks requires greater flexibility to accommodate seasonal variations and mitigate long-term storage challenges, such as material loss and fire risk. To achieve this goal, biomass deconstruction technologies must efficiently handle diverse feedstocks. Here, we assess the cost of using butylaminea distillable solventto deconstruct 22 different biomass feedstocks: 7 herbaceous, 9 woody, 4 food processing residues, and 2 blends.
