The effects of anionic and non-ionic surfactant on anaerobic co-digestion of sludge, food wastes and green wastes.

Abstract:

:Surfactants are widely used and discharged into wastewater treatment plants, which might influence the anaerobic digestion (AD) treatment of municipal waste. In this study, the effects of typical anionic surfactants sodium dodecyl benzene6 sulfonate (SDBS) and non-ionic surfactants APG, on mesophilic anaerobic co-digestion of sludge, food waste, and green waste were investigated. Results indicated that at 5 mg/g, the biogas production was inhibited in SDBS supplemented systems while stimulated in APG-added reactors, with the methane yield of 146.58 L/g VS consumed. At 15 mg/g, the biogas production in both SDBS and APG supplemented reactors was both inhibited. It means the negative or positive effect of APG on AD depends on the dose of APG supplementation. The 16S rRNA gene analysis demonstrated the microbial community structure in the digester was changed due to the addition of surfactant. Bacteroidia significantly increased with the addition of APG and SBDS, while the increase of Clostridia only occurred in APG-added system. The variation of microbial Communities' structure in APG and SDBS-added digesters might give an explanation for the different efficiencies in these two systems. Thus, the effects of surfactants on the efficiency of AD should be considered during the disposal of municipal organic waste.
