Anaerobic digestion process is a spreading rapidly biotechnology for conversion of various organic wastes into bioenergy. This process can be modelled as a biochemical reaction kinetics. This approach is useful for analysis of the process. For this reason, efficient numerical methods are needed to solve this type of model. The main contribution of this study is to solve the biochemical reaction kinetics model for methane production from anaerobic digestion process of cellulose. This model provides a system of ordinary differential equations. For solving this system, a method is designed based on the universal approximation capability of a three layer feedforward sigmoidweighted neural networks with Adam optimization algorithm. This method is illustrated with numerical simulations. Moreover, the classical numerical methods such as Runge-Kutta method (RK45) and sigmoid neural networks are presented to show that all methods yield similar results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
