Abstract:Covered lagoon biodigesters are widely used in Brazil for treatment of agro-industrial effluents; however, under natural conditions, they operate at temperatures below the ideal. Thus, external sources for heating the effluent can enhance reactor performance and optimize thermal exchanges between the biodigester and the environment. This study aimed to evaluate the thermal exchanges in the internal and external environments of a covered lagoon biodigester from the influence of effluent heating through solar en… Show more
