The yield of biogas and methane from anaerobic digestion of mixed waste of fruit and vegetables for distribution to supermarkets

Original language description

The article presents the results of laboratory test anaerobic digestion of biological waste generated from the distribution of fruit and vegetables to supermarkets. Biological waste with an average dry matter content of 9.1% wt., loss on ignition of 91.9% wt. and value pH of 3.8 was supplied by Hortim International, Ltd. Co. Test measurement of biogas production and methane was carried out in constantly stirred tank reactor with a capacity of 0.06 m3 for 70 days at an average load of 0.865 kgVS.m-3.d-1and hydraulic retention time of 100 days. Measured specific biogas production was 0.083 mN3.kg-1 and specific methane production 0.537 mN3.kgVS-1 (expressed due to the weight unit of dry matter loss on ignition at 550°C). The average methane content in biogas was 53% vol. Biological wastes from fruit and vegetables are very valuable substrate for suspension anaerobic digestion. The test result was used in the design of new mobile technology of high-solid anaerobic fermentation in silage
