Start-up anaerobic digestion of tomato-processing wastes for methane generation
AbstractA good start-up of digestion of tomato-processing waste (TPW) was achieved by the stepwise addition of feedstock over 10–12 weeks of digestion. The stepped increases of TPW in the digester resulted in a steady-state gas yield of 0·597 m3/kg VS added with a 72% methane content. Volumetric production of gas and methane remained high after the eighth week of digestion throughout the investigation. The volatile fatty acids concentration in this system was similar to a cowdung-fed digester and never exceeded more than 150 mg/litre throughout the period.
