“…Anaerobic co-digestion of different kind of organic waste, especially cattle manure, allows for resolving any imbalance (pH, alkalinity, macro-and micronutrients elements) and improving the biogas production with an effective bioreactor performance (Amon et al 2007;Chen et al 2010;Seppälä et al 2013). Anaerobic co-digestion of cattle manure exhibits the synergies effect such as buffering capacities on inhibition of pH and ammonia, supplying trace elements and supporting necessary methanogenic bacteria (Hashimoto 1986;Macias-Corral et al 2008;Rao and Baral 2011;Rico et al 2007;Yangin-Gomec and Ozturk 2013).…”

“…Over the last years, several authors investigated the effect on the performance of the AD process by simultaneously treating cattle manure as well as wastes containing high levels of organic matter or energy crops (Alvarez and Liden 2008;Comino et al 2009;Lehtomaki et al 2007;Nasir et al 2012;Yangin-Gomec and Ozturk 2013). This co-digestion method, if co-substrate is used at the appropriate rate, can give interesting results because the synergistic impact indicated by different organic substrates when processed simultaneously (Angelidaki and Ellegaard 2003;Chen et al 2010;Dias et al 2014;El-Mashad et al 2004;Hills and Roberts 1981;Lehtomaki et al 2007;Li et al 2009Li et al , 2011Macias-Corral et al 2008;Mata-Alvarez et al 2000;Rao and Baral 2011;Umetsu et al 2006). For optimal carbon-to-nitrogen ratio and pH diverse substrates are mixed for best biogas production (Khan and Martin 2016).…”

This literature review surveys the previous and current researches on the co-digestion of anaerobic processes and examines the synergies effect of co-digestion with cattle manure. Furthermore, this review also pays attention to different operational conditions like operating temperature, organic loading rate (OLR), hydraulic retention time (HRT), chemical oxygen demand (COD) and volatile solid (VS) removal efficiency and biogas or methane production. This review shows that anaerobic mono-digestion of cattle manure usually causing poor performance and stability. Anaerobic studies were generally performed under mesophilic conditions maintained between 35 and 37°C. Organic waste loading rate generally ranges from 1 to 6 g VS-COD L -1 day -1 stable condition in anaerobic digester. Generally, studies show that HRT for co-digestion of fruit-vegetables waste and industrial organic waste appears to exceed 20 days. However, the anaerobic co-digestion process is generally operated at HRT of between 10 and 20 days. VS and COD removal efficiency usually reaches up to 90 % due to codigestion with different type organic waste. Methane-biogas production is generally obtained between 0.1 and 0.65 L CH 4 -biogas g -1 VS.

“…Simultaneous presence of several types of residues in the co-digestion process may, due to significant synergistic interactions, improve the process [10,16,36], producing a higher methane yield than is obtained from individual fractions. Many of the catalytic centers of the enzymes involved in methanogenic pathways are micro nutrients dependent [37].…”

AbstractDifferent mixture ratios of solid cattle slaughterhouse wastes (SB), manure (M), various crops (VC), and municipal solid wastes (MSW) were investigated for biogas production. The objective was to explore possible significant synergistic effects obtained from the combination of these different substrates. The performance of the process was assessed in thermophilic anaerobic batch co-digestion assays, using a four factor mixture design and methane yield (Y CH4 ) and specific methane production rate (r sCH4 ) as response variables.The highest methane yield, 655 NmL CH 4 /g VS was obtained when equal parts (ww) of SB, M, VC, and MSW were combined, while the combination of SB, M, and MSW resulted in the highest specific methane production rate (43 NmL CH 4 /g VS/d). A mixture design model was fitted to data in order to appraise synergistic and antagonistic interactions. Mixing all four substrates resulted in a 31% increase of the expected yield which was calculated from the methane potential of the individual fractions, clearly demonstrating a synergistic effect due to more balanced nutrient composition enhancing the anaerobic digestion process. However, no significant antagonistic effects were observed. In order to maximize both response variables simultaneously, a response surface method was employed to establish the optimal combination of substrate mixtures. The statistical results and analysis of the biological process gave a coherent picture of the results.

Agricultural solid wastes in the southern part of Jordan were estimated and classified. Data collection method was used to determine the types and quantities of different agricultural solid wastes. Human excreta and cattle manure were found to be serious environmental problems in the region. Chemical analysis of different solid wastes showed variable organic and nitrogen content which affect the selection of treatment process. Anaerobic digestion (AD) was tested and found to be a suitable unit operation to treat a wide variety of agricultural solid wastes. Biogas production rate from AD ranged from 0.3 m 3 /kg COD to 0.61 m 3 /kg COD which is considered 80% to 90% of yield. The optimum C/N ratio and TVS for AD was found to be 22 ± 2 and 70% ± 5%, respectively. The amount of energy that can be produced from energy crops and animal manures was estimated to be 12.8 Mtoe and 0.34 Mtoe, respectively. Methane biogas production rate was estimated to be 37 m 3 /ton for substrate consist of mixture of different agricultural solid waste of 50% wastewater, 40% Cattle manure, 5% straw and 5% sawdust.
