Anaerobic digestion of long-chain fatty acids (oleic, palmitic, stearic) with whey protein as the emulsifier

Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Long chain fatty acids are suitable for biogas production, however, they are often responsible for process inhibition, due to their high toxicity even at low concentrations. In this study, anaerobic co-digestion of whey protein emulsified with oleic, palmitic or stearic acid were examined in...Read more

High-rate anaerobic co-digestion of agro-industrial wastes combined with ammonia recovery and biogas purification

Eftaxias A., Georgiou D., (Corresponding) Diamantis V., Koumara A., Koskinari M., Aivasidis A.
Topic: 
Environmental biotechnology and bioenergy
Screened dairy manure, pressure-sterilized animal by-products, and cheese whey were co-digested in a Plug Flow Reactor (PFR) over a period of 150 days. The mixture was characterized by TCOD = 70±8 g/L, SCOD = 26±6 g/L, NH4-N = 1.5±0.3 g/L, TSS = 20±5 g/L, VSS = 18±6 g/L, TS = 33±5 g/L, VS = 26±2 g/...Read more
