“…When compared with the results of previous studies on AD of water hyacinth with dung inoculum, this study recorded a lower methane production (Tasnim et al 2017 ). Reports by Westerholm et al ( 2018 ) and Zhang et al ( 2022 ) similarly confirm the detrimental impact of ammonia on synthrophic acetate oxidizing bacteria during AD. Additionally, exclusion of foreign microbes such as those found in cow dung inoculum in the digesters could have also contributed to reduced methane production, due to inefficiency of the indigenous microbial community of water hyacinth inoculum to improve methane production (Horváth et al 2016 ).…”

The utilisation of water hyacinth for production of biogas is considered to be a solution to both its control and the global renewable energy challenge. In this instance, an investigation was conducted to evaluate the potential of water hyacinth inoculum to enhance methane production during anaerobic digestion (AD). Chopped whole water hyacinth (10% (w/v)) was digested to prepare an inoculum consisting mainly of water hyacinth indigenous microbes. The inoculum was incorporated in the AD of freshly chopped whole water hyacinth to set up different ratios of water hyacinth inoculum and water hyacinth mixture with appropriate controls. The results of batch tests with water hyacinth inoculum showed a maximal cumulative volume of 211.67 ml of methane after 29 days of AD as opposed to 88.6 ml of methane generated from the control treatment without inoculum. In addition to improving methane production, inclusion of water hyacinth inoculum reduced the electrical conductivity (EC) values of the resultant digestate, and, amplification of nifH and phoD genes in the digestate accentuates it as a potential soil ameliorant. This study provides an insight into the potential of water hyacinth inoculum to enhance methane production and contribute to the feasibility of the digestate as a soil fertility enhancer.

“…While previous studies have examined the adaptation of the microbiome to increasing levels of ammonia, the mRNA-level response, particularly regarding mechanisms involved in the recovery from ammonia-induced stress, remains poorly understood. More into detail, integrated metagenomics and metaproteomics focused only on elucidating the impact of ammonia on methanogens and syntrophs, as well as activity of key enzymes during AD. , However, upregulation of enzymes under ammonia-stressed conditions, potentially leading to a mechanism for controlling ammonia toxicity and stabilizing the AD process, is still largely unexplored. Therefore, it is important to use genome-centric metatranscriptomics to map the early response of the microbiota, which can aid in understanding and managing the turn-on and turn-off steps of the AD process.…”

The presence of elevated ammonia levels is widely recognized as a significant contributor to process inhibition in biogas production, posing a common challenge for biogas plant operators. The present study employed a combination of biochemical, genome-centric metagenomic and metatranscriptomic data to investigate the response of the biogas microbiome to two shock loads induced by single pulses of elevated ammonia concentrations (i.e., 1.5 g NH 4 + /L R and 5 g NH 4 + /L R ). The analysis revealed a microbial community of high complexity consisting of 364 Metagenome Assembled Genomes (MAGs). The hydrogenotrophic pathway was the primary route for methane production during the entire experiment, confirming its efficiency even at high ammonia concentrations. Additionally, metatranscriptomic analysis uncovered a metabolic shift in the methanogens Methanothrix sp. MA6 and Methanosarcina f lavescens MX5, which switched their metabolism from the acetoclastic to the CO 2 reduction route during the second shock. Furthermore, multiple genes associated with mechanisms for maintaining osmotic balance in the cell were upregulated, emphasizing the critical role of osmoprotection in the rapid response to the presence of ammonia. Finally, this study offers insights into the transcriptional response of an anaerobic digestion community, specifically focusing on the mechanisms involved in recovering from ammonia-induced stress.

“…This was approximately 3.5 times less than that of the Control digester, at 714 mg-FAN L −1 . A study by Zhang, Yuan [ 37 ] found that 337 mg-FAN L −1 decreased methane yield by 65 %. This aligns with the findings of this study where a significant reduction in methane yield was experienced in Control digesters ( Fig.…”
