“…Higher methanogen bacteria increase pH values and inhibit acidogenesis (Lohani and Havukainen, 2018). Some studies have investigated the pH effects on AD to produce biogas and found that pH for anaerobic digestion ranged from to 8.5 (Glivin et al, 2022), while the pH optimum of methanogens bacteria for chicken manure degradation ranged between 6.5 and 7.2 (Hakimi et al, 2021), 6.8-7.4 (Allah et al, 2021), 6.8-7.2 (Domrongpokkaphan et al, 2021, and 6.5-7.3 (Ajay et al, 2021). Additionally, others have described the ideal pH for methanogenesis as 7, while the hydrolysis and acidogenesis ranged within 5.5-6.5, and the correct pH range was 6.8-7.2 (Buragohain et al, 2021).…”
