Abstract:A semicontinuous module reactor was operated under methanophilic conditions to effect rapid
solid anaerobic digestion of lignocellulose substances for waste utilization and stabilization. This
was achieved by recovering the methanogenic phase from the high-rate acidogenic fermentation
phase. The influence of a total carbon to nitrate ratio (C/N(NO3)) of the lignocellulose feed on
the development of methanogens from a high-rate acidification fermentation phase was first
investigated. The effects of pH adjustmen… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
