Anaerobic Co-digestion of Pineapple Wastes with Cow Dung: Effect of Different Total Solid Content on Bio-methane Yield

Abstract: The abundance of agricultural wastes produced from pineapple processing and livestock industries has resulted in the difficulties of disposing of a large amount of waste. Anaerobic digestion is a way to reduce waste and generate renewable energy sources including biogas. In this study, pineapple waste is co-digested with cow dung in batch experiments under mesophilic temperature at 38±1°C at a working volume of 100 ml in 125 ml serum bottle. The effects of the total solid on methane yields are investigated at … Show more

“…Methane-rich biogas is generated from various types of feedstocks, especially food waste. According to Aili Hamzah et al [171], biogas consists of mainly 50-75% methane, 19-34% carbon dioxide and less than 1% biohydrogen through the anaerobic digestion process. Other than containing high moisture content and biodegradability, the composition of the waste such as carbohydrate, protein and lipid is an excellent potential substrate for biogas production.…”

“…A recent study investigated by Aili Hamzah et al [171] evaluated the potential of co-digesting pineapple waste with cow dung to produce methane gas. The results revealed that the highest methane yield of 17.19 CH 4 /g VS could be achieved at a 1:2 cow dung to pineapple ratio.…”

“…This slurry (1:2 treatment) generated was applied as foliar and drenching to pineapple (MD 2 )-Ananas comosus var L. plants itself to study their height, leaf number and average weight of the fruit. In recent studies, pineapple waste and cow dung were used in raw form for methane gas generation (Hamzah et al, 2020), here we had utilized cow dung slurry instead and maximum production of methane gas was achieved in 1:1 ratio of slurry application. Similar studies were done by Mugerwa., (2018) where 2:1 ratio of pineapple waste and cow dung slurry generated highest methane content of 64% whereas here highest of 63.41% of methane gas was obtained from 1:1 ratio of pineapple waste and cow dung slurry.…”

“…Eventually, the waste will build up and become a source of concern for the environment if it is not controlled. Making value-added products out of pineapple waste is one approach to deal with these wastes in an environmentally friendly manner (Hamzah et al, 2020;Lun et al, 2014;Maneeintr et al, 2018). Peel of pineapple waste can be utilized as the raw materials for producing biogas, however the amount of nitrogen is insufficient (Lun et al, 2014).…”
