Abstract:
In a biodigester setup, the researchers investigated the production of methane gas using plantain peel and cow dung as substrates. Two buncher flasks, corks, a glass tube, and a calibrated conical flask comprised the biodigester setup. The setup involved anaerobic digestion processes, analyzing different ratios of cow dung and plantain peel to produce biogas. The main anaerobic digestion process was carried out in Buncher flask one, after which the methane gas formed was sent to Buncher flask two through a rubber tube, where the by-products such as carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide were abso

A steady-state implementation of the IWA Anaerobic Digestion Model No. 1 (ADM1) has been applied to the anaerobic digesters in two wastewater treatment plants. The two plants have a wastewater treatment capacity of 76,000 and 820,000 m3/day, respectively, with approximately 12 and 205 dry metric tons sludge fed to digesters per day. The main purpose of this study is to compare the ADM1 model results with full-scale anaerobic digestion performance.

Abstract:
Anaerobic digestion of food waste still faces important challenges despite its world-wide application. An important fraction of food waste is composed of organic material having a low hydrolysis rate and which is often not degraded in digesters. The addition of this less hydrolysable fraction into anaerobic digesters requires a longer hydraulic residence time, and therefore leads to oversizing of the digesters. To overcome this problem, the conversion of the highly biodegradable liquid fraction from fruit and vegetable waste in a up-flow anaerobic sludge blanket (UASB) digester is proposed and

This dissertation is a study of the heat transfer through concrete walls in anaerobic digester facilities. In the biogas industry, the term “heat loss” is synonymous with heat transfer. The dissertation identifies the reasons why heat is critical in the operations of these facilities. Concrete has traditionally been a material used for the retention of liquid-based products and additionally provides good thermal insulating properties. It combines the benefits of being relatively cost effective for the construction of large tanks and requiring low maintenance during the operational life span. T

Abstract:
Recent concerns regarding global warming and energy security have accelerated research and developmental efforts to produce biofuels from agricultural and forestry residues, and energy crops. Anaerobic digestion is a promising process for producing biogas-biofuel from biomass feedstocks. However, there is a need for new reactor designs and operating considerations to process fibrous biomass feedstocks. In this research project, the multiphase flow behavior of biomass particles was investigated. The objective was accomplished through both simulation and experimentation. The simulations included

Abstract:
In the global search for the right alternative energy sources for a more sustainable future, hydrogen production has stood out as a strong contender. Hydrogen gas (H2) is well-known as one of the cleanest and most sustainable energy sources, one that mainly yields only water vapor as a byproduct. Additionally, H2 generates triple the amount of energy compared to hydrocarbon fuels. H2 can be synthesized from several technologies, but currently only 1% of H2 production is generated from biomass. Biological H2 production generated from anaerobic digestion is a fraction of the 1%. This study aims
