The possibility of joint treatment of spent sugar beet pulp and wastewater from a sugar factory was studied in this work. Works focused on processing of spent sugar beet pulp separately or together with other substrates can be found in the literature. In the case of some sugar factories, which have spare capacity in the anaerobic reactor on an anaerobic-aerobic wastewater treatment plant, joint processing of spent sugar beet pulp and wastewater from the sugar factory might be an interesting option. The results of the operation of a pilot plant of an anaerobic reactor with a capacity of 3.5 m3 are discussed. Operation of the pilot plant confirmed the possibility of cofermentation of these materials. The organic loading rate achieved in the anaerobic reactor was higher than 6 kg/(m3·d) (COD), while more than half of the load was provided by spent sugar beet pulp. The addition of sugar beet pulp decreased the concentration of ammonia nitrogen in the anaerobic reactor and it was even necessary to add nitrogen. However, the nitrogen content in sludge water depends on the C:N ratio in the processed sugar beet pulp, therefore this knowledge cannot be generalized. About 1.5 to 2-fold biogas production can be expected from the cofermentation of wastewater with sugar beet pulp in an anaerobic reactor, compared with the biogas production from just wastewater treatment.

Whey is a primary by-product of dairy plants, and one that is often difficult to manage. As whey processing units are costly and complicated, only 15–20% of whey is recycled for use in the food industry. The difficulties in managing waste whey are particularly pronounced for small, local dairy plants. One possible solution to this problem is to use advanced and efficient digesters. The aim of this study was to present an innovative multi-section hybrid anaerobic bioreactor (M-SHAR) design and to identify how microwave radiation heating (MRH) affects methane fermentation of liquid dairy waste (LDW) primarily composed of acid whey. The MRH reactor was found to perform better in terms of COD removal and biogas production compared with the convection-heated reactor. The heating method had a significant differentiating effect at higher organic load rates (OLRs). With OLRs ranging from 15 to 25 kgCOD∙m−3∙d−1, the M-SHAR with MRH ensured a 5% higher COD removal efficiency and 12–20% higher biogas yields.

The main objective of the present experimental investigation was to evaluate the performance of using a refitted anaerobic reactor system to treat the water hyacinth press juice. The biogas production rate was rapidly rising from 25 L.d-1 to 54 L.d-1 in the first few start-up days, there was approximately 1332 L biogas measured by wet gas meter and 62% of methane was detected during the experiment period. At the end of the anaerobic digestion treatment, it could be observed about 83.5% COD, 85.7% SS and 74.1% SS of the initial content was removed, declined from 7428 mg.L-1 to 1223 mg.L-1, from 6748 mg.L-1 to 967mg.L-1 and from 2315 mg.L-1 to 600mg.L-1, respectively. TN declined from 127.8mg.L-1 to 88.0mg.L-1 with a total loss of 31.2%. The variation of TP in the whole process was gradually declined, from 34.3mg.L-1 to 25.0mg.L-1, had total 27.1% lost. In the whole digestion process the pH increased slowly from 6.8 to 7.8. On the basis of the experimental results obtained, it is possible to conclude that: the refitted anaerobic reactor system for water hyacinth press juice digestion was practical and effective.

Biogas is an alternative to gaseous biofuels and is produced by the decomposition of biomass from substances such as animal waste, sewage sludge, and industrial effluents. Biogas is composed of methane, carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen, hydrogen sulfide, and oxygen. The anaerobic production of biogas can be made cheaper by designing a high throughput reactor and operating procedures. The parameters such as substrate type, particle size, temperature, pH, carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratio, and inoculum concentration play a major role in the design of reactors to produce biogas. Multistage systems, batch, continuous one-stage systems, and continuous two-stage systems are the types of digesters used in the industry for biogas production. A comprehensive review of reactor design for biogas production is presented in the manuscript.

Sản xuất phân hữu cơ từ chất thải biogas để tạo ra nguồn phân bón và giải quyết ô nhiễm môi trường là vấn đề quan trọng hiện nay. Do đó, nghiên cứu được thực hiện với mục đích đánh giá ảnh hưởng của việc phối trộn một số vật liệu ủ đến chất lượng của phân hữu cơ từ chất thải biogas và từ đó xác định được vật liệu phối trộn cho chất lượng phân hữu cơ từ chất thải biogas tốt nhất. Thí nghiệm được tiến hành tại phường Hương Vân, thị xã Hương Trà, tỉnh Thừa Thiên Huế trong thời gian từ tháng 11/2019 đến tháng 3/2020 trên 6 công thức với các vật liệu và tỷ lệ ủ khác nhau. Thí nghiệm gồm có 03 lần nhắc lại, bố trí theo kiểu RCBD. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy vật liệu và tỷ lệ ủ khác nhau có ảnh hưởng đến tính chất lý, hóa học của phân hữu cơ từ chất thải biogas theo thời gian ủ. Trong các vật liệu ủ thì kết hợp rơm rạ, vỏ lạc với dung dịch và chất cặn hầm ủ biogas (1:1) + chế phẩm Trichoderma và rơm rạ, vỏ lạc, than bùn với dung dịch và chất cặn hầm ủ biogas (1:1:2) + chế phẩm Trichoderma cho chất lượng của phân hữu cơ là tốt nhất (N 2,72 - 2,92%; P2O5 0,92%; K2O 2,84 - 4,64%, OM 33,50 - 38,84%). Hiệu quả kinh tế trong sản xuất phân hữu cơ từ chất thải biogas thu được cũng cao nhất ở các công thức này. Cần mở rộng kết quả nghiên cứu trên quy mô lớn hơn và thử nghiệm hiệu quả của nó với cây trồng góp phần tăng năng suất, cải tạo đất và giảm thiểu ô nhiễm môi trường từ nguồn chất thải chăn nuôi này. ABSTRACT Producing organic fertilizer from animal wastes after biogas treatment to create fertilizer source and solve environmental pollution is now an important issue. Therefore, the study was conducted with the purpose of assessing the effect of mixing some composting materials on the quality of organic fertilizer from animal waste after biogas production and thereby identifying good mixing materials with the best organic fertilizer from animal waste after biogas production. The experiment consisted of 6 treatments with different composting materials and rates which was conducted in Huong Van ward, Huong Tra town, Thua Thien Hue province from November 2019 to March 2020. The experiment consisted of 3 replicates which was arranged in the Randomize Complete Block Design (RCBD). The research results showed that different composting materials and rates affected on the physical and chemical properties of organic fertilizer from animal waste after biogas production. Among the composting materials, the combinations of liquid and solid wastes from the biogas digesters with rice straw and peanut husks (1:1) + Trichoderma; rice straw, peanut husks and peat (1:1:2) + Trichoderma gave the best quality of organic fertilizers (N 2.72 - 2.92%; P2O5 0.61 - 0.92%; K2O 2.84 - 4.64%, OM 33.50 - 38.84%). The highest economic efficiencies also obtained in these treatments. It is necessary to expand the research results on a larger scale and to test its effectiveness on crops that contribute to productivity, soil improvement and environmental pollution from the animal wastes.
