Effect of inoculum/substrate ratio on methane yield and production rate from straw
AbstractThis study evaluated the effect of inoculum/substrate ration on methane yield and production rate in small-batch fermentors. Four trials were conducted with substrate concentrations of 10, 20, 30 or 40 g ball-milled straw diluted with tap water to a total weight of 1 kg. Inoculum concentrations were: 100 (control), 90, 70, 50, 30 and 20 or 10% by volume. Results showed that the ultimate methane yield was drastically lower at inoculum/substrate ratios (on a volatile solids basis) below 0·25. Methane production rate increased at a decreasing rate up to an inoculum/substrate ratio of two, after which it remained relatively constant.
