Evaluation of Methanogenic Activity of Biogas Plant Slurry for Monitoring Codigestion of Ossein Factory Wastes and Cyanobacterial Biomass

Chellapandi, P., Prabaharan, D., Uma, L.·2010·Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology

Abstract

Overall measurement of methanogenic activity of sludge and or slurry is thought as a key for understanding the basic physiology of anaerobic consortia involved in anaerobic digestion process of an alternative biomass. In this study, the methanogenic activity of biogas plant slurry was used to evaluate the anaerobic digestion of ossein factory wastes such as sinews and primary clarified bone waste (PCBW) and cyanobacterial biomass in standard assay conditions. A maximum methanogenic activity was reported here when ossein factory wastes mixed with cyanobacterial biomass in specific proportions in which sinews and PCBW alone also favored to a significant methane yield. Cyanobacterial biomass alone did not give a desirable methanogenic activity. Approximately 48% of total solids were destroyed from these wastes after 30 days. This study gives information on the use of these wastes with suitable proportions for taking an effort in a large-scale anaerobic digestion in an effective way of ossein factory.

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Methanogenic activity of cyanobacterial biomass in general is less desirable (0.31-0.47 L CH4 L−1 day−1) compared to cattle/swine waste or mixed slurry (3-6 L CH4 L−1 day−1).

    “The methanogenic activity of cyanobacterial biomass in general is less desirable (0.31–0.47 L CH4 L−1 day−1) compared to cattle/swine waste or from mixed slurry (in the range of 3–6 L CH4 L−1 day−1) (Chellapandim et al. 2010; Varel et al. 1988).”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
