Effects of sludge inoculum and organic feedstock on active microbial communities and methane yield during anaerobic digestion

Effects of sludge inoculum and organic feedstock on active microbial communities and methane yield during anaerobic digestion

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a widespread microbial technology used to treat organic waste and recover energy in the form of methane (biogas). While most AD systems have been designed to treat a single input, mixtures of digester sludge and solid organic waste are emerging as a means to improve effic...
