2. 1. Evaluation of process parameters and treatments of different raw materials for biogas production

   Author : Malik Badshah; Bioteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Anaerobic digestion; biogas; lignocellulosics; inoculum to substrate ratio; feed composition; toxicity; furaldehydes; paper and pulp sludges.;

   Abstract : The anaerobic digestion process results in the production of biogas from a large diversity of organic residues, which can be used as an alternate source of energy generation and for waste management. However, the biogas production technology is not exploited efficiently due to the characteristics of raw materials, poor methane yields, process instability, limited raw materials and lack of knowledge about the process.

4. 2. Developments in Feedstock Analysis and Process Control for Biogas Production

   Author : Sten Strömberg; Bioteknik; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Anaerobic digestion; Process control; Biochemical Methane Potential; Process analysis; Feedstock; Biogas;

   Abstract : A sustainable treatment of organic wastes, generation of renewable energy, reduction of green house gas emissions, limiting the eutrophication and closing the nutrient cycles are several environmental challenges for which anaerobic digestion may be a suitable solution. There is today a large amount of available organic waste materials that could serve as potential feedstock for biogas production. READ MORE

5. 3. Enhanced Methane and Hydrogen production in Reverse Membrane Bioreactors via Syngas Fermentation

   Author : Konstantinos Chandolias; Hariklia N. Gavala; Högskolan i Borås; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; syngas fermentation; CH4; H2; cell washout; inhibitors; mass transfer; Resource Recovery; Resursåtervinning;

   Abstract : of waste treatment processes, such as the anaerobic digestion. This biochemical process converts organic substrates into biogas, with anaerobic microorganisms. However, some types of substrates have low bio-degradability due to its recalcitrance or the presence of inhibitors. READ MORE

6. 4. Factors that Influence the Biochemical Methane Potential (BMP) Test : Steps towards the Standardisation of BMP Test

   Author : Bing Wang; Bioteknik; []
   Keywords : Anaerobic Digestion; Biochemical Methane Potential; Degradation Kinetics; Lignocellulosic Biomass; Mixing; Pre-treatment; Standardisation;

   Abstract : Anaerobic digestion (AD) has gained increasing attention nowadays as an approach for both waste treatment and renewable energy generation. Currently, many different types of materials can be used as feedstock for biogas production via AD process, but their biodegradability (based on methane yield, BDCH4) and potential to produce biogas might vary significantly, and these properties are key parameters that should be taken into consideration for economy, design and operation of a full-scale biogas plant during the selection of potential feedstock.
