Utilization of citrus, date, and jujube substrates for anaerobic digestion processes

AbstractThis research explores the potential for generating biogas and clean energy by processing organic waste, a process that can become a sustainable solution to Syria's energy needs. Focusing on agricultural residues generated from citrus fruit orange, date, and jujube cultivation in Syria, this study evaluates the potential for anaerobic digestion of these residues for biogas production. It highlights the influence of substrate composition and the optimization of fermentation processes on biogas and methane production. The study focuses on evaluating the anaerobic digestion process by examining various dosages ranging from 20% to 50% dry matter for citrus orange waste, and different types of substrate with a fixed ratio of 20% substrate dry matter. It specifically discusses the factors influencing the inhibitory effect of anaerobic digestion, giving particular consideration to orange waste, a significant byproduct of the citrus industry. The biogas produced maintained a stable methane content when a citrus‐to‐inoculum ratio of 30:70 was used. Jujube waste, characterized by a composition rich in cellulose and hemicellulose, exhibited a higher potential for biogas and methane generation among the fruit waste investigated, particularly when combined with the inoculum in a 20:80 ratio. The research findings underscore the potential of using Syrian agricultural residues, including orange citrus peel, date, and jujube fruit, for the production of biogas through anaerobic digestion.

In this paper, the possibility and effectiveness of using chicken manure as an organic fertilizer "Soil improver (UP-1)" is studied. "Soil improver (UP-1)" was obtained by adding the plant growth regulator "Mephosphone" to chicken manure. The drug "Mephosphone" is intended for the cultivation of grain crops, as well as the production of organic products. Experimentally, the prospects of using the drug "Mephosphone" to accelerate the processing of organic waste have been revealed. As a result of the research, field data were obtained on the cultivation of winter wheat of the Kazanskaya 560 Elite variety in the fields of JSC Agrofirma Ak Bars - Pestretsy. The introduction of chicken manure - "Soil improver (UP-1)", treated with the drug "Mephosphone" was carried out according to the described method. The local variety of winter wheat "Kazanskaya 560" Elite with a seeding rate of 280 kg/ha was used as an experimental crop. The predecessor was perennial herbs. Before the experiment and after harvesting, soil was selected for analysis from both experimental fields with an area of 300 hectares from 6 random plots at a layer depth of 0-20 cm. As a result of field tests, an increase in the yield of grain of the Kazanskaya 560 Elite variety was recorded when applying chicken manure. In the experimental plots, the yield was 33.5 and 36.0 c/ha. The grown grain with the use of chicken manure treated with the preparation "Mephosphone" meets the basic quality requirements and is practically not inferior to the grain of the control group, which allows it to be freely used for processing into flour of proper quality. Analysis of the indicators of experimental soil samples shows that they do not exceed the requirements of scientific and technical documentation. Thus, the resulting soil is safe for humans and agricultural production. The proposed technology for processing poultry waste will improve the environmental situation around modern poultry farms, reduce the use of unprocessed chicken manure as fertilizers, replacing it with higher-quality and environmentally friendly organic fertilizers formed as a result of anaerobic disposal of manure.

Possibilities of decontaminating organic waste from swine-farming complexes using anaerobic digestion

AbstractAnaerobic digestion with simultaneous production of biogas is one of the most common methods of recycling, processing and decontamination of organic waste to produce alternative fuels. A commonly used indicator of the sanitary safety of the substrate is eggs of Ascaris suum nematodes of pigs, which are characterised by extremely high resistance to environmental factors. The aim is to investigate the effect of the mesophilic mode of anaerobic digestion on the activity of pathogens, particularly Ascaris suum eggs. The eggs of the studied nematode species were placed in a biogas installation at a temperature of 37 °C. The digestate samples with eggs were then taken every 4 days for 28 days, followed by larvae culture to determine the viability of the eggs. The results of our research have shown that the mesophilic regime of anaerobic digestion is an effective method of controlling parasites, but at the same time, it needs to be improved, since only 7.6% of A. suum eggs remained alive after a 1-day stay, about 50% after the week stay and about 9% in the third week stay in the biogas reactor. Thus, further optimisation of anaerobic fermentation in the mesophilic mode can be aimed at improving the suppression of pathogenic activity.

Identifying reliable microbial indicators in anaerobic digestion of organic solid waste: Insights from a meta-analysis

The identification of microbial indicators holds significant promise for detecting key challenges of anaerobic digestion, driving microbial management. In order to be considered reliable, microbial indicators must possess certain features, such as universality, significant abundance changes under stressful conditions, and the ability to predict CH4 yield. To investigate the performance of microbial indicators, a meta-analysis was conducted on 178 publicly available 16 S rRNA gene sequences from 12 studies that examined the anaerobic digestion process of organic solid wastes. The analysis identified key taxa that achieved microbial indicator features through two different approaches: whole community and core microbiome analysis. The alpha diversity analysis indicated that a specialized genus-level microbial community with a high number of sOTUs was crucial for achieving high CH4 yield. Aminobacterium, Clostridium, HA73, T78, Corynebacterium, Lactobacillus, and Prevotella exhibited a higher number of microbial indicators attributes, including a significant response in their abundance and predictive capability for CH4 yield, along with relevant metabolic roles associated with inhibitory compounds. Among them, Corynebacterium, Lactobacillus, and Prevotella demonstrated robust fold-change features to increase the likelihood of successful categorization and, Aminobacterium, Clostridium, HA73, and T78 showed universality, suggesting easy detection across various anaerobic digestion processes. Understanding the advantages and drawbacks of reliable microbial indicators and considering their features will aid in the selection of appropriate detection techniques, offering valuable insights for future validation and implementation for AD processes improvement or control.
