Summary: | Using agricultural wastes for anaerobic fermentation to produce biogas can not only realize the resource utilization of the wastes, but also prevent the environmental issues caused by straw burning. Sugarcane leaves contain waxy layer, which will cause problems such as difficulty in degradation, long-time fermentation and low biogas production. This paper studies the effects on three pre-processing methods of adding rush rot agent, natural retting for 7 days and water moisture for 24 hours of dry anaerobic fermentation of sugarcane leaves and pig manure. The results show that natural retting for 7 days has the advantage of daily biogas production when the fermentation period is less than 20 days, but this method is not obviously different from that of water moisture for 24 hours. When taking total biogas production volume and volume loading rate as the indicators, water moisture for 24 hours is the best pre-processing method for dry anaerobic fermentation of sugarcane leaves and pig manure when the fermentation period is more than 20 days.
