Can the seasonal variability affect the BMP of fruit and vegetable waste?
(Corresponding) Scotto di Perta E., Lamboglia R., Cesaro A., Frunzo L., Esposito G., Papirio S.
Topic:
Food waste
Fruit and vegetable waste (FVW), largely produced in open markets, is characterized by highly putrescible materials, thus being a proper substrate for anaerobic digestion. This study investigated the effect of the seasonal variation of FVW, on the biochemical methane potential (BMP). To this end,...Read more

Topic:
Food waste
Fruit and vegetable wastes produced massively in open markets are a suitable feedstock for biogas production and digestate of high fertilizing value. A first step of designing anaerobic digestion systems for treating these wastes efficiently is to study the impact of the seasonal variation on the...Read more
