Characterization of biogas production and microbial community in thermophilic anaerobic co-digestion of sewage sludge and paper waste

Pulp and Paper Mill Sludge Utilization by Biological Methods

“…From these results, we can conclude that the increased concentration of sludge did not have toxic or inhibitory effects on the bacterial consortium of the anaerobic sewage sludge and supplied the necessary nutrients for the development and growth of the microorganisms. The positive effect of the addition of paper sludge during anaerobic fermentation has been demonstrated in the works of many authors, e.g., Chynoweth, 1993 [21], Zhu, 2021 [22].…”

Complete Genomic Sequence of the Thermophilic Hydrogen-Oxidizing Methanogen Methanothermobacter tenebrarum Strain RMAS T

“… Methanothermobacter tenebrarum strain RMAS T is a thermophilic and hydrogenotrophic methanogen that was isolated from the gas-associated production water of a gas-producing well in a natural gas field in Japan ( 1 ). Uncultured methanogens closely related to M. tenebrarum RMAS T are often reported as the predominant methanogens in methanogenic digesters and subsurface environments ( 2 , 3 ). The genomic information of M. tenebrarum RMAS T could help distinguish it from related strains, such as Methanothermobacter thermautotrophicus strain ΔH T .…”

Heterogeneous photocatalysis and an anaerobic biological process for leachate treatment

“…Anaerobic sludge is favored by high values in TSS and SSV parameters because their presence indicates a higher organic loading rate and more biogas generation [30]. Temperature and pH are important and controlling factors in the use of anaerobic sludge because they significantly affect the process [31].…”
