Co-digestion studies of FW and RS with six different mixing ratios were conducted at an initial volatile solid（VS） concentration of more than 3 g VS · L-1. The biogas production, methane contents, degradation efficiency of VS, chemical oxygen demand（COD） and volatile fatty acids（VFAs） were determined to evaluate the stability and performance of the system. The results showed that the co-digestion process had higher system stability and higher volumetric biogas production than mono-digestions. Increase in FW content in the feedstock could increase the methane yield and shorten retention time. The efficiency of co-digestion systems mainly relied on the mixing ratios of FW and RS to some extent. The highest methane yield was 60.55 m L· g V· S-1 · d-1 at a mass ratio（FW/RS） of 3 ： 1, which was 178% and 70% higher than that of mono-digestions of FW and RS, respectively. Consequently, the anaerobic co-digestion of FW and RS could have superior stability and better performance than monodigestions in higher organic loading system.展开更多

In order to investigate the effects of ceramsite on methane and HzS productions during anaerobic digestion of macroalgae, batch experiments ofMacrocystis pyrifera were carried out. Four groups named C0, C1, C2 and C3 added with 0, 1.5, 3.0 and 4.5 g/g substrate of ceramsite, respectively, were studied and compared. The highest cumulative methane yield of 286.3 mL/g substrate is obtained in C2, which is 40.11% higher than that of CO. The cumulative HzS yields of C1, C2 and C3 are 32.67%, 44.66% and 53.21% lower than that of CO, respectively. Results indicate that ceramsite addition permits higher methane yields, shorter lag-phase time and lower HzS yields during anaerobic digestion of Macrocystispyrifera.展开更多
