Summary

This project develops a thermochemical pre-treatment technology to enhance gas production from brewers' spent grains during anaerobic digestion. By breaking down complex structures, the process improves substrate utilization and gas yield, while also addressing hydrogen sulfide management in biogas through a microbiolo…

Objective

The aim of the project is the development of a thermochemical pre-treatment technology to increase the gas yield of brewers spent grains during an anaerobic digestion process.

Thermochemical pre-treatment will be realised in a pressure vessel by addition of sulphuric acid.

Pre-treatment of organic biomass will lead to a break down of the complex lignocellulose structure and release oligomeric/monomeric carbohydrate units which will then be better available for degradation by anaerobic digestion.…
