“…For example, a pH value near neutral is preferred for methanogens (Tchobanoglous et al, 2002). Lay et al (1997) demonstrated that the process of methane production because of high-solids digestion at moisture contents of 90 to 96% functions over a pH range of 6.6 to 7.8, with an optimum of 6.8; a pH lower than 6.1 or higher than 8.3 could cause process failure. Nelson et al (2004) measured pH in the anaerobic lagoons to be between 6.8 and 6.9.…”

“…Los microorganismos anaerobios necesitan de manera estricta un pH en torno a la neutralidad para su desarrollo correcto, aunque permiten cierta oscilación (Clark & Speece, 1989), aunque pueden presentarse problemas si baja por debajo de 6 o sube por encima de 8,3 (Lay, Li, & Noike, 1997). El pH afecta directamente la actividad enzimática de los microorganismos mediante cambios de estado de los iones de las enzimas como el carboxil y amino; alteración que se presenta en los componentes no ionizables del sistema, como por ejemplo la desnaturalización de la estructura proteica de las enzimas (Clark & Speece, 1989).…”
