Project description:This work is devoted to the investigation of the methanogenic archaea involved in anaerobic digestion of cattle manure and maize straw on the basis of terminal restriction fragment length polymorphism (T-RFLP) analysis of archaeal 16S rRNA genes. The biological diversity and dynamics of methanogenic communities leading to anaerobic degradation of agricultural organic wastes with biogas production were evaluated in laboratory-scale digesters. T-RFLP analysis, along with the establishment of archaeal 16S rRNA gene clone libraries, showed that the methanogenic consortium consisted mainly of members of the generaMethanosarcinaandMethanoculleus,with a predominance ofMethanosarcinaspp. throughout the experiment.

Project description:Waste management technologies have become a way to generate value-added products. Anaerobic digestion (AD) allows biogas generation by treating organic wastes. In this work, the methanogenic potentials of anaerobic digestion of rumen and chicken manure, two typical agro-industrial wastes from the Colombian Caribbean region, were evaluated. On a first stage, the effect of temperature on anaerobic digestion of manure inoculated with liquid rumen was measured. Results revealed that the thermophilic digestion produces more biogas (up to 47% higher than the mesophilic digestion), but the mesophilic digestion has better biogas quality (up to 20% more methane than the thermophilic digestion). On the second experimental stage, it was assessed the effect of temperature regimen and the addition of fat-oil-grease (FOG) on cumulative biogas production, methane percentage, and physicochemical parameters. It was found that the anaerobic digestion of the rumen with FOG in mesophilic conditions had the best performance in terms of quantity and quality of biogas (2520 NL CH4/kg VS, CH4 93%, H2S 1 mg/L, H2O 16 mg/L). Finally, rumen and manure had methane concentrations above 40% in all cases studied, after 60 days of anaerobic digestion. It was concluded that rumen and manure are good candidates for biogas generation.

Project description:Although traditional anaerobic digestion (AD) process to produce methane-rich biogas from wet waste is deep-rooted, high carbon footprint and its low value as compared with other renewable sources demand advanced strategies to avoid its production. An emerging conversion pathway to arrest methanogenesis for producing value-added fuels and chemicals instead of biogas is sought as a sustainable alternative. This research provides a comprehensive analysis on current technology development, process challenges, applications, and economics for producing high-value short-chain carboxylic acids from AD of wet wastes. We show that (1) the theoretical energy yields of acids equal or exceed biogas, and (2) the cost of these acids is competitive with those produced from chemical markets, making this economically viable for mass production. With global abundance of wet waste feedstocks, this process of short-chain acid production provides a promising alternative to conventional biogas production technology, while achieving waste management and carbon mitigation goals.

Project description:High concentrations of minerals, heavy metals are often found in mineral wastes (MWs) originated from municipal solid waste incineration plants, so as construction/demolition sites. Such by-products (minerals) often have buffering capacity. The current work provides analysis of total and soluble (dissolved) metal concentrations released by four different MWs (a. cement-based waste, b. incineration (bottom), c. fly and d. boiler ash) supplemented to anaerobic reactors of organic waste at 37 °C. The reactors (continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR)) were ran for 75 days at hydrolytic retention time of 20 days. Genomic DNA extraction, and qPCR and Illumina HiSeq (16S V4) analyses were conducted to investigate microbial community population and composition in anaerobic digestate samples collected from these reactors. Output data from Illumina sequencing analysis were FastQ files analysed using the QIIME2 pipeline to produce a feature table listing the frequency of each assigned microbial taxa per samples. Additional study was conducted on the microbial data to visualise variations in microbial communities using the STAMP software and phyloseq R package. Detailed interpretation and discussion of the results can be found in the related research article [1].

Project description:Studies have shown that anaerobic digestion (AD) has an effect on the liquid and solid product property of sequential pyrolysis, but its influence on the gaseous products is lacking. In this study, syngas produced by pyrolysis from three raw organic solid wastes and the corresponding digestates, i.e., food waste, vinasse, and cow manure were investigated. AD causes a decrease in the contents of volatile solid, fixed carbon, C, H, and N and an increase in the S content. The weight loss of the wastes mainly occurs at 200-550 °C during the pyrolysis and the loss of the food waste and vinasse is higher than that of cow manure. In the carbon (C)-containing gas, AD leads to a decrease in the CH4 content of the syngas, implying that the heat values of the digestates are lower than that of the raw substrates. After AD, the total amount of nitrogen (N)-containing gas from the vinasse increases by 40.1%, while that from cow manure decreases by 14.1%. On the contrary, the total amount of sulfur (S)-containing groups in the syngas from vinasse drop by 22.0%, while that from cow manure increases by 9.1%. In addition, slight changes in the C-, N-, and S-containing gases are found from food waste. The results indicate that AD has a different effect on the N- and S- containing gaseous groups from different organic solid wastes, and the mechanisms deserve further investigation. The findings supply a theoretical foundation for environmental-friendly application of syngas from the digestates.

Project description:Complete valorization of various wastes and effluents, with significant organic content, remains a great challenge in the pursuit of a circular economy. The approach based on anaerobic fermentation, leading to valuable biogas production, has been broadly accepted and employed as an attractive processing scheme. However, despite notable research efforts, complete valorization of the digestates (involving recovery of nutrients/by-products and full recycling/reuse of treated water) requires additional work for sustainable process development. This study aims to make a contribution in this direction by demonstrating a systematic methodology for valorizing the liquid digestate. The proposed membrane-based processing scheme involves UF-membrane pretreatment of the liquid digestate (for sludge separation) and subsequent NF/RO membrane treatment for reuse/recycling of the permeate; the concentrate, enriched in "nutrients" (phosphate and ammonium compounds), can be utilized for soil fertilization, with further conditioning/processing. By performing targeted laboratory experiments and advanced simulations, the membrane-based process was developed to a relatively high technology-readiness level, including a pilot unit design/construction and preliminary testing with satisfactory results. Through pilot testing in industrial environment, further process development and optimization will be pursued, towards practical applications. The demonstrated methodology is also considered appropriate for systematic development of membrane-based processes to valorize/treat a variety of similar effluents.

Project description:Agricultural waste ashes are used as resource materials to synthesize new glass and glass-ceramics. The as-prepared materials are characterized using various techniques for their structural and dielectric properties to check their suitability in microelectronic applications. Sugarcane leaves ash exhibits higher content of alkali metal oxides than rice husk ash, which reduces the melting point of the components due to eutectic reactions. The addition of sugarcane leaves ash in rice husk ash promotes the glass formation. Additionally, it prevents the cristobalite phase formation. These materials are inherently porous, which is responsible for low dielectric permittivity i.e. 9 to 40. The presence of less ordered augite phase enhances the dielectric permittivity as compared to cristobalite and tridymite phases. The present glass-ceramics exhibit lower losses than similar materials synthesized using conventional minerals. The dielectric permittivity is independent to a wide range of temperature and frequency. The glass-ceramics developed with adequately devitrified phases can be used in microelectronic devices and other dielectric applications.

Project description:Inoculating agricultural soils with nitrous oxide respiring bacteria (NRB) can reduce N2O-emission, but would be impractical as a standalone operation. Here we demonstrate that digestates obtained after biogas production are suitable substrates and vectors for NRB. We show that indigenous NRB in digestates grew to high abundance during anaerobic enrichment under N2O. Gas-kinetics and meta-omic analyses showed that these NRB's, recovered as metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs), grew by harvesting fermentation intermediates of the methanogenic consortium. Three NRB's were isolated, one of which matched the recovered MAG of a Dechloromonas, deemed by proteomics to be the dominant producer of N2O-reductase in the enrichment. While the isolates harbored genes required for a full denitrification pathway and could thus both produce and sequester N2O, their regulatory traits predicted that they act as N2O sinks in soil, which was confirmed experimentally. The isolates were grown by aerobic respiration in digestates, and fertilization with these NRB-enriched digestates reduced N2O emissions from soil. Our use of digestates for low-cost and large-scale inoculation with NRB in soil can be taken as a blueprint for future applications of this powerful instrument to engineer the soil microbiome, be it for enhancing plant growth, bioremediation, or any other desirable function.
