Synergistic effect of sugarcane scum as an accelerant co-substrate on anaerobic co-digestion with agricultural crop residues from non-centrifugal cane sugar agribusiness sector

Anaerobic co-digestion (AcoD) of the main residues from the non-centrifugal cane sugar (NCS) making process, agricultural crop residues (ACR) and sugarcane scum (SCS), was evaluated using biochemical methane potential tests. Substrates were pretreated: ACR through particle size...

Nanoadsorbentes para captura de dióxido de carbono (CO2): un enfoque a la purificación del biogás

En los últimos años, la producción de biogás en biodigestores domésticos ha tenido un creciente desarrollo, siendo empleado en zonas rurales principalmente para iluminar y calentar. Sin embargo, la presencia de CO2 reduce considerablemente el poder calorífico del biogás, lo cua...

Management and valorization of waste from a non-centrifugal cane sugar mill via anaerobic co-digestion: Technical and economic potential

The main sugarcane wastes from the non-centrifugal cane sugar (NCS) agro-industry, agricultural crop residue (ACR) and sugarcane scum (SCS), were used to produce biogas in a bench-scale semi-continuous anaerobic tubular digester. A two-stage strategy was proposed to achieve the...

Cheese whey co-digestion treatment in a tubular system: microbiological behaviour along the axial axis

This study carried out an anaerobic co-digestion treatment of cheese whey using cattle manure as a co-substrate. A co-digestion process was implemented in three tubular reactors, each one with a different organic load rate (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 kg CODfed m?3digester day?1). A biochem...
