Effect of Thermal Hydrolysis Pretreatment on Anaerobic Digestion of Protein-Rich Biowaste: Process Performance and Microbial Community Structures Shift

Abstract: To reveal the effects of thermal hydrolysis (TH) pretreatment (THPT) on anaerobic digestion (AD) of protein-rich substrates, discarded tofu was chosen as the object, and its batch AD tests of tofu before and after being subjected to TH at gradually increasing organic loads were carried out and the AD process characteristics were compared; furthermore, its continuous AD tests without and with THPT were also conducted and the difference of the microbial community structures was investigated. The results showed t… Show more

“…Under the HRT 2 days, the THP reactor exhibited a significantly lowered Shannon diversity index (P = .03, Figure 3) than the non-THP reactors, supporting the hypothesis that THP may reduce indigenous microbes due to potential sterilization effects [12,19,20]. The surviving indigenous organisms after THP were primarily those with high thermal stability and dry resistance such as Clostridium, Thermobrachium, and Bacillus [21].…”

“…This could be attributed to the trade-off effects of THP. By-products released after THP such as the ammonium from protein degradation [8][9][10][11][12], phenols/furfural from hemicellulose degradation [13,14], the formed refractory compounds such as the melanoidin, and other recalcitrant dissolved organic nitrogen [15][16][17] may impact VFA production. Those compounds reduce the feedstock biodegradability and correspondingly impact microbial communities [11,12].…”
