Kinetic Study on Methane Fermentation of Pre-Hydrolyzed Lignocellulosics
The anaerobic fermentations of hemicellulose and starch hydrolyzates mixtures, simulating the composition of agricultural wastes, have been studied supposing first order kinetics.
Results of previous works demonstrate that the equation of chemical oxygen demand (COD) consumption rate should take into account, for a satisfactory kinetic description, the COD value at the end of batch digestion. The First Order model has accordingly been adapted and checked in this study.
The modified model shows a better fit than the simple First Order model to the experimental data of COD consumption for the substrate under consideration. It is very simple and easy to use but requires further experimentation to identify the phenomenon actually responsible for the observed kinetics.
