ALEXANDROPOULOU M., PAPADOPOULOU K., (Corresponding) ANTONOPOULOU G., LYBERATOS G.
Topic:
Solid waste management
Lignocellulosic biomass including agricultural and forestry residues such as willow sawdust could be used as feedstock for anaerobic digestion (AD). Hydrolysis has been shown to be the rate-limiting step in the case of AD of such substrates. Although being abundant, since the annual world...Read more
