The study investigates the performance of biochar mediated anaerobic co-digestion of corn stover and chicken manure, showing that urea pretreatment and biochar addition can improve co-AD, with a synergistic effect under medium and high OLR conditions. The results reveal that urea pretreatment and biochar addition promoted the AD process by strengthening the buffer capacity system and improving the degradation of lignocellulosic biomass.
The performance of biochar mediated anaerobic co-digestion (co-AD) of corn stover (CS) and chicken manure (CM) using continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) was studied. Results showed that urea pretreated CS (UPCS) and biochar addition in anaerobic digestion (AD) system can improve co-AD. The effect of urea pretreatment is similar to that of biochar addition, and their synergistic effect was apparent under medium and high OLR conditions. When the OLR was 4.2 and 6.3 g VS/L/d, the biochar mediated UPCS/CM co-AD operated stably with the VMP of 2.160 and 1.616 L/L/d, and VMP of the biochar mediated UPCS /CM were 32.8%-89.6% and 27.8%- 96.4% higher than other reactors, respectively. The results reveal that urea pretreatment and biochar addition promoted AD process through strengthening the buffer capacity system established by ammonia nitrogen and volatile fatty acids and improving the degradation of lignocellulosic biomass.

Dominic Yellezuome, Xianpu Zhu, Xin Liu, Xuwei Liu, Ronghou Liu, Zengzhen Wang, Yingkai Li, Chen Sun, Mohamed Hemida Abd-Alla, Abdel-Hamied M. Rasmey

Summary: The high impurity concentration of biogas limits its commercial utilization. This review focuses on the integration of two-stage anaerobic digestion process with in situ biogas upgrading technologies, discussing their principles, influencing factors, research progress, and technical challenges. pH, alkalinity, and hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis are identified as crucial factors influencing these technologies. pH fluctuation and low gas-liquid mass transfer of H-2 are major technical challenges that hinder the full-scale application of in situ upgrading techniques. The review proposes integrating two-stage anaerobic digestion with various in situ upgrading techniques to overcome these constraints and advance the development and commercialization of these techniques.

Machine learning-based prediction of methane production from lignocellulosic wastes

Chao Song, Fanfan Cai, Shuang Yang, Ligong Wang, Guangqing Liu, Chang Chen

Summary: This paper developed a machine learning model to predict the biochemical methane potential during anaerobic digestion. Model analysis identified lignin content, organic loading, and nitrogen content as key attributes for methane production prediction. For feedstocks with high cellulose content, early methane production is lower but can be improved by prolonging digestion time. Moreover, lignin content exceeding a certain value significantly inhibits methane production.
