“…Recently, biogas derived from pretreated cassava peel fermentation produced methane yield of 62.3% (Aisien & Aisien, 2020). Cassava waste pulp was used as a substrate to produce biogas with significant amount of biohydrogen (18.69 ± 1.71%) concentration (Jaro et al, 2021). A paper by Okudoh et al (2014) extensively reviewed the promising technologies to optimize and improve biogas production using cassava as the raw material.…”

Cassava is an important food crop with an average consumption of 50 kg/capita/year in Africa (FAO, 2018). The global cassava production stands at slightly over 11 tonnes per hectare. Over 63% of the 303 million tonnes produced globally in 2019 was from Africa (FAO, 2019). Despite being the leading region in cassava production, only 3000 tonnes of the produce are dedicated to non-food uses. The challenges associated with global fossil fuels

“…Many recent studies have focused on biogas production from the anaerobic digestion of banana and cassava wastes across the world [17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. Many of these studies have modelled the biogas production process using different kinetic models such as first order model, cone model, and Gompertz model.…”

Purpose: In the present study, anaerobic digestion of cassava (Manihot esculenta) and banana (Musa paradisiaca) wastes was investigated and the kinetic modelling of the conversion process was carried out. Methods:The experiments were carried out in a batch reactor under mesophilic conditions. Results:The total solids content of cassava and banana were 14.7% and 15.7% respectively, moisture content of cassava and banana were 85.3 and 84.3% respectively while the volatile solids content of cassava and banana were 92.32% and 96.27% respectively. The cumulative biogas yield of cassava substrate reached 18.8 L/g VS after 30 days while that of banana reached 14.24 L/g VS in the same digestion time. The first-order kinetics showed that the cassava substrate had greater potential for biogas production due to its relatively higher k value (0.19) than the banana substrate (0.03). Modified Gompertz kinetic parameters showed a total biogas production of 30.54 L/gVS for cassava at a maximum production rate of 0.56 L/g/VS/day while banana had a total biogas production of 24.91 L/gVS at a maximum production rate of 0.44 L/g/VS/day. The short lag phase of the digestion process indicatedthat the microbes acclimatized quickly to the slurry environment.The modified Gompertz model was a better fit for the experimental and simulated data, based on the closeness of R2 values to 1. Conclusion:Both cassava and banana substrates showed great potential for biogas production.Therefore, biogas generated from waste valorization can mitigate over-dependence on depleting fossil fuel/crude oil in Nigeria and Africa.

“…The continuous increase in global population, has led to excessive demand for water, energy, and high rate of solid waste generation (Owamah et al 2020;Owamah 2020a, b;Owamah et al 2017). This excessive demand for energy has in turn put great pressure on conventional energy resources such as fossil fuels (Onokwai et al 2020;Jaro et al 2020;Reza et al 2020;Pratiwi and Juerges 2020). Dairy production has also become an important industry in Nigeria and world-over and contributes about 7% of the aggregate agricultural production worth (Coppolecchia et al 2015).…”

In this study, investigation was done to determine the optimum combination of cow dung (CD) and horse dung (HD) for enhanced biogas production and plant stability. Anaerobic co-digestion of CD and HD at varying percentage combination was carried out in five (5) identical 25 L cylindrical digesters (A-E) for a retention period of 37 days, at an average ambient temperature of 33 °C. Using the Microsoft excel solver function, 2010 version,
