Abstract:
:The anaerobic digestion of a cellulose-enriched fraction of domestic refuse by means of rumen microorganisms in an "artificial rumen" digester was studied. Various combinations of solid and liquid retention times and loading rates were applied to establish optimum conditions for the acidogenic phase digestion of the refuse fraction. An optimal substrate conversion of about 72% was obtained at a loading rate of 23.4 g volatile solids (VS)/L d and a solids retention time of 90 h. Variation of dilution rate between 1.04 and 3.14 fermentor volume turnovers per day had no effect on degradation efficiency. At a loading rate of 23.4 g VS/L d a differential removal rate of solids and liquids appeared to be necessary to obtain an effective degradation of the refuse fraction.
