Abstract:Addition of enzymes to anaerobic digesters (ADs) has been reported as beneficial to the hydrolytic step of the process. Additional benefits have been described for bioadded reactors such as improved dewatering and lower energy requirements. This work aimed to assess the long-term and unaccounted effects of enzymatic addition on sludge digestion. Enzymes' impacts were tested using different addition modes (bulk or gradual addition) and during operational changes on reactors operated for 295 days. Enzyme added i… 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.
