“…Therefore, maize straw has far fewer potential buyers, and hence a significantly lower price than straw from cereal ears and even from rapeseed production [36]. However, in the case of methane fermentation, it can be one of the cheaper and more easily available agricultural substrates [39,40,41].…”

Maize has great potential, especially as a substrate for biofuels production. The aim of this paper is to analyze the possibility of usage in methane fermentation maize straw harvested in different weather conditions, which had an influence on different physical parameters, mainly the dry mass content. The research has shown that maize straw harvested in Central-Eastern Europe can have a broad spectrum of dry mass content, which is related to diverse weather conditions during autumn. However, independently from moisture content, maize straw can be a good (for more wet material) or very good (for more dried straw) substrate for the biogas plant. With the methane productivity reaching 201–207 m3/Mg of fresh mass, this material is a significantly better substrate than that typically used in Europe maize silage (approximately 105 m3/Mg FM). It was noted that the retention time for maize straw (36–42 days) is longer than in the case of maize silage (less than 30 days). However, this difference is quite small and can be accepted by the biogas plant operators.

Maize has a tremendous open door, immensely as a biofuel source. The objective reason for this examination is to break down the capacity of maize straw procured under fluctuating climatic circumstances to be used in biogas handling and the effect on different physicochemical components, for the most part, outstandingly the dry mass substance. This information indicates that corn stalks collected in China and Eastern Europe may exhibit extensive dry matter synthesis. This may be related to prewinter climate change. Regardless of temperature or consistency, corn straws can make incredible (for damp materials) or sublime (for more powdered straws) biogas substrates. With a new mass of methane value of 201207 m3/mg, this material is a much better substrate than the corn silage (about 105 m3/mg FM) which is definitely used in Europe. Corn straws were said to require longer consideration (3642 days) than corn silage (not exactly 30 days). In any case, this distinction is not important, and the biogas plant can remind the manager.
