The Effects of Different Concentration Glucose on Methane Fermentation

Abstract

With the different concentrations of glucose of 20%, 50%, 80% respectively, we used it as raw material for anaerobic digestion. The results showed that, gas production, organic matter content, and energy conversion efficiency were different, with the best experimental group of 20%. Using glucose as the raw material, the low concentration glucose can achieve the rapid start-up of the biogas anaerobic system, as well the energy conversion efficiency was higher than others.
