“…However, the impact of pretreatment on the process performance in dry AD of food waste has not yet been investigated. It is known that pretreatment accelerates the hydrolysis phase of the AD with a significant impact on the reduction of residence times [27]. The lower the residence time, the lower is the reactor volume required-which leads to lower capital costs per unit.…”

The aim of this study was to treat food waste containing 25% total solids (TS) through dry anaerobic digestion (dry AD) process at various pressures (0.5 to 2.5 kg/cm2) and different time duration (20 to 100 min) to understand the impact of pretreatment in enhancing the methane generation potential along with insights on scale up. The findings revealed that vs. reduction and methane yield of 60% and 0.25 L CH4/(g VSadded) can be achieved with pretreated food waste at two kilograms per square centimeter, while pretreatment of food waste at 2 kg/cm2 for 100 min enhanced the vs. reduction from 60% to 85% and methane yield from 0.25 to 0.368 L CH4/(g VSadded). However, the net energy indicated that 40 min of pre -treatment at two kilograms per square centimeter can be a suitable option as methane yield and vs. reduction of 0.272 L CH4/(g VSadded) and 70%, respectively was achieved. The vs. reduction and the methane yield of 45% and 0.14 L CH4/(g VSadded), respectively was obtained from untreated food waste which illustrated that pretreatment had significantly impacted on the enhancement of methane generation and organic matter removal which can make the dry AD process more attractive and feasible at commercial scale.

“…[1,2] The conversion of biomass, either through anaerobic conditions or direct combustion, provides a clean and renewable source of energy. [1,3] Biomass-based energy alternatives offer the potential to replace a significant portion of fossil fuel. [4][5][6] Biomass is considered a renewable energy resource and provides clean fuel, that is, it adds no additional CO 2 into the environment while burning.…”

Traditional community cookstoves have a low level of efficiency due to their poor heat transfer efficiency and incomplete combustion. The low efficiency results in a high consumption of fuel wood, thereby creating a need of more fuel wood. This paper deals with the development of a biomass cookstove suitable for community cooking. The stove exhibits approximately 36.38% thermal efficiency and has a thermal power rating of 5 kW. The maximum flame temperature recorded was 712°C. The data indicate that the developed cookstove can save approximately 7155 kg of CO2 per annum.

An engineered, circulating cancer cell line secreting a luciferase reporter captures constitutive and circadian clock‐driven transcription dynamics. This was observed in vitro in a continuous flow cell culture system, and in vivo detecting circadian luciferase plasma activity. This technique is rapid, noninvasive and can aid in investigating relationships between cancer cell signaling and behavior, such as diet or sleep.
