“…The differences found in methanogens biodiversity between biowaste and biogas residues result from the stage of anaerobic digestion. The composition of methanogens is in consistent with the results of Gryta et al (2017). At the beginning of the process, methanogens inoculum is added to the substrates in order to initialize methanogenesis and thus biogas production.…”

The goal was to elucidate the importance of the waste properties for effective exploitation in biogas production and for soil application, respectively, based on the physicochemical and microbial characterization of biowaste and the corresponding biogas residues. The following waste media were chosen: fruit waste, dairy sewage sludge, corn silage, grass silage, and grain brew to prepare three co-substrates for anaerobic bioconversion. The most satisfactory biogas yield was obtained from biowaste with the following composition: 25% fruit wastes, 25% dairy sewage sludge, 12% corn silage, and 38% grain brew. The study included functional and genetic diversity assessment through the characterization of the catabolic potential and structure of the microbial communities inhabiting the examined organic wastes and their relative biogas residues. The metabolome was based on the use of a Biolog ® plate. The elucidation of the metagenome employed the genetic structure of prokaryotes and involved denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis and next-generation sequencing analyses. The usefulness of metagenomics was emphasized by ecotoxicological evaluation of biowaste and in determining the accurate start-up community composition for biogas production, highlighting the pivotal role of anammox and hydrolytic bacteria as marker groups. The high importance of the great diversity of fungi was also revealed based on a functional approach.

The purpose of the study was to link microbial community composition and chemical properties of various biomass and their resulting digestate residues for their potential use in biogas production or soil enrichment. The order of biogas production, graded from high to low was as follows: corn silage, grass silage, fruit waste, and dairy sewage sludge. Different bacterial families were predominant in different biomass. Corn silage deteriorated as a result of long-term air exposition and may serve as an efficient feedstock substrate for anaerobic digestion. A positive role in plant biocontrol microorganisms found in grass straw residues, and reasonable biogas yield obtained from this substrate suggests the use of grass straw for biogas production and its residues to enrich the soil. Due to potential threat of introducing pathogens into the soil within fruit waste or dairy sewage sludge, or soil acidification by fruit waste repeated use in field application, this biomass should be sanitized prior to soil application. Simultaneously, low biogas yields from fruit waste and dairy sewage sludge substrates make it necessary to transform them in anaerobic digestion with more energetic co-substrates. Tested residues may deliver a robust and wide range of methanogens as inoculum for further anaerobic digestion process.

Methane fermentation is an attractive practice in waste processing, which enables one to both control pollution and recover energy. This kind of anaerobic digestion is exposed to inhibitors, which can retard the process and cause failure. The mechanism causing toxicity of these substances and their impact on the efficiency of the process are already known, but there is still not much information about their influence on methane fermentation microorganisms' activity and the composition of microbiota. In this review, based on 168 articles, we present a summary of the up‐to‐date research on the inhibition of anaerobic processes by some specific toxicants: ammonia, sulfides, ions of light metals, heavy metals, antibiotics, ethylene and acetylene, chlorophenols, halogen aliphatic hydrocarbons, aliphatic nitro compounds, and long‐chain fatty acids. This review principally focuses on the impact of these inhibitors on the microorganisms involved in the process. More accurate recognition of methane fermentation inhibition mechanisms, with particular emphasis on the microbiological aspect, can help to improve the efficiency of the process.
