Anaerobic digestion foaming in full-scale biogas plants: a survey on causes and solutions
Anaerobic digestion foaming is a common operation problem in biogas plants with negative impacts on the biogas plants economy and environment. A survey of 16 Danish full-scale biogas plants on foaming problems revealed that most of them had experienced foaming in their processes up to three times per year. Foaming incidents often lasted from one day to three weeks, causing 20–50% ...

"Four in one" model and the development of household biogas in northern China
By reviewing the development of household biogas in China, one of the key factors which impeded the use of biogas in northern China was noted - how a biogas digester lives through the winter. In order to solve this problem, a model named "Four in one" has been proposed by some researchers. In this paper, this model, including its structure, technical features, and benefit was introduced and ...

Influence of cyanide on the anaerobic degradation of glucose
Bacteria in the anaerobic degradation process convert the substrate to the final products methane and carbon dioxide. Toxic substances can change the process substantially. The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of toxic cyanide on biogas production in anaerobic degradation of glucose at 40°C. The OxiTop respirometric system offers a quick and simple method for measurement of ...

Decolorization and biogas production by an anaerobic consortium: effect of different azo dyes and quinoid redox mediators
The inhibitory effect of azo dyes and quinoid compounds on an anaerobic consortium was evaluated during a decolorization process and biogas production. In addition, the impact of quinoid compounds such as lawsone (LAW) and anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonate (AQDS) on the rate of decolorization of Direct Blue 71 (DB71) was assessed. The anaerobic consortium was not completely inhibited under all ...

Effect of different solid concentration on biogas yield and composition during anaerobic fermentation process
The anaerobic fermentation experiments were carried out on a self-manufactured bench scale anaerobic digester with pig dung as feed material. Under mesophilic digestion condition, effects of different solid concentration of feed on characteristics of biogas production were investigated. Results showed that daily average biogas production rate and total biogas yield were increased with the ...

The feasibility of trace element supplementation for stable operation of wheat stillage-fed biogas tank reactors
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of trace element supplementation on operation of wheat stillage-fed biogas tank reactors. The stillage used was a residue from bio-ethanol production, containing high levels of sulfate. In biogas production, high sulfate content has been associated with poor process stability in terms of low methane production and accumulation of process ...

Quantification of leakage in batch biogas assays
Avoiding leaks is essential for accurate measurement of biogas production by batch assays. Here we present a simple method for detecting leaks and correcting results, based on the change in bottle mass during incubation. Three experiments were carried out using pure chemicals, wastewater sludge, and other complex substrates to test and demonstrate the method, and leaks were detected in all ...
