Digestion of Grass
Vergärung von Energiegras zur Biogasgewinnung U. Baserga, Kurt Egger NovaEnergie, CH-8356 Ettenhausen Summary Within the scope of the research project "Digestion of Energy Grass for Biogas Production" completed in December 1996, processes for the semicontinuous digestion of energy grass were developed on laboratory scale. A number of digestion systems and processes were tested and the operating parameters for suitable systems determined. Co-digestion with slurry and dry anaerobic digestion in a solids fermenter proved to be promising processes for technical application. In the present follow-up study, the technical feasibility of the processes developed in the laboratory and the suitability for practical application in agriculture were tested. In a full scale biogas plant (co-digestion) and a pilot plant (dry anaerobic digestion), tests were run during approximately 3, that is to say 7 months. The results of these practical tests showed that the co-digestion of extenso grass in an agricultural biogas plant is technically feasible. Silage from extenso grass can be fermented in a biogas plant suitable for co-digestion and used for supplementary biogas production. In the co-digestion biogas plant, chopped silage of approximately 10 % weight was added to the daily quantity of pig slurry and the suspension (dry matter content: 8 to 10 % ) was fermented at 35° C in a horizontal flow fermenter. By adding silage, the daily gas production could be increased from 160 m3 to approximately 250 m3. The supplementary organic load (increase from 2.5 to approx. 4.3 kg OS/m3.d) had no negative effect on the process stability. This confirms the laboratory test results, where loading rates of up to 7 kg OS/m3.d lead to a stable digestion process. To guarantee a problem-free operation, the mixture must be easy to pump and no blockages should occur in the pipes. Prior to feeding, the silage was cut to a length of 1–3 cm. This proved to be the maximum length for blockage free operation at the used slurry/solid matter ratio (6-7 m3 manure/600 kg silage). For the co-digestion of the silage, approx. 30 minutes of additional work were necessary per day to assure substrate preparation. For practical operation, the time involved can be reduced through an improvement of all organisational and technical processes. In tests involving liquids recirculation in the modified Anacom pilot plant, the technical feasibility of dry anaerobic digestion of silage in a plug flow fermenter was demonstrated. During the test period of 7 months, the pilot plant worked perfectly. However, technical modifications and improvements in feeding and liquids recirculation will be necessary to ensure optimum performance. The feeding by means of a piston pump, ideally suited for feeding solid manure, is limited in its application for silage (and other dry substrates). Problem-free operation of this system can only be guaranteed by using well wetted silage (prior storage in water or slurry). Moreover, a certain amount of manure must be added to lubricate the feeding pipe. Feeding by means of a chain trough conveyor, as used in a comparable dry fermentation, might prove to be a more suitable for silage. The decisive factor for high biogas yield lies in sufficiently wetting the silage within the fermenter with liquid manure or another buffering liquid. Pig manure (dry matter:1-2%) was used as liquid phase and recirculated once to twice a day. The recirculation volume amounted to 3 to 5 % of the solids volume (150 - 250 litres of manure/5 m3 silage). At organic loads of 3, that is to say 5 kg OS/m3.d (retention time: 25 days, temperature: 35°C), approximately 80 to 85% of the maximum biogas yield were produced. The decrease in gas production as opposed to the results achieved on laboratory scale was due to the fact that the silage was not optimally wetted (due to design limitations) and that strongly compressed silage was used. For practical agricultural applications, the same equipment used for solid manure can be put to use. After storage, the consistency of the digested grass-silage permits field application using a conventional manure spreader. Two step anaerobic digestion of biogenic solid wastes W.Edelmann, A. Joss, M.Ilg et al. arbi, Arbeitsgemeinschaft Bioenergie, CH-8933 Maschwanden H.Engeli engeli engineering, CH-8173 Neerach ABSTRACT A two step process is advantageous in the case of solid wastes, because it permits the separation of the solid and the liquid phase, allowing the operation of high rate anaerobic methanogenesis for the liquid. In this process developed by arbi, hydrolysis/acidogenesis takes place in a rotating sieve-drum, which guarantees optimal mixing and percolation conditions. Circulating water is treated in the methanogenic step, i.e. in a horizontal, pulsating dynamic anaerobic filter. Over 90% of the methane is generated in the methanogenic step. The degradation of solid household and vegetable wastes (easily degradable), of Aenergy grass@ pretreated by silage as well as of coffee pulp (as an example of industrial waste), was investigated. The two step technology applied allows the conversion of over 80% of easily degradable organic wastes into biogas in less than 5 days. If hydrolysis is the rate limiting step of degradation (energy grass), it seems not to be reasonable to separate the stages, however. Coffee pulp showed a significantly better break-down in two stage digestion as compared to one step digestion. The pilot plant experiments created new insights about anaerobic breakdown and the mechanisms of process inhibition. There seem to be different possibilities for full scale application of a continuously fed, horizontal sieve-drum (washing machine), where the percolation liquid is sprinkled on the top of the drum. The results indicate that it is possible to digest easily degradable organic wastes at a total volume of the different reactors of only one third of the one needed for one step solid digestion. RESULTS: 16 experiments with different substrates and different running conditions were carried out. With vegetable wastes (salad and vegetables from catering services), the best results were obtained by recirculating daily about 1 volume of circulation water per 1 volume of waste. The pH may drop in the hydrolysis shortly to 5.6, but it remains most of the time at ~6.5. When reducing the recirculation rate to 1/10 of waste volume, the pH drops to 4.4 and inhibition is observed. While digesting vegetable wastes, the level of the recirculation water was lower than the lowest part of the drum. Keeping the lower part of the drum inside the recirculation water may be an advantage for substrates which show a tendency to clog the net inside the grid. Mesh sizes of the net should be smaller than 1mm in order to prevent a considerable wash out of suspended solids. The drum was operated at 1 RPM at intervals of 2 min Aon@ and 10 min Aoff A.
Experimental plant: Numbers: 1: Hydrolysis, 2: dynamic anaerobic filter, 3: storage/expansion tank. 4: gas balloons. The drum of the hydrolysis is hanging at the pulley (left).
Rate of destruction of dissolved COD in filter (top), storage (centre) and hydrolysis (bottom) negative value for destruction = formation In one step anaerobic digestion of solid wastes, problems may occur if the substrate is easily degradable: Because in solid waste digestion there is no possibility for the accumulation/retention of biomass within the reactor, the slower growing methanogens are overfed at high loading rates. If, on the other hand, hydrolysis is the rate limiting step, the methanogens have enough time to grow simultaneously with the hydrolytic biocenosis. In this case it appears not worthwhile to construct a plant with a high methanogenic concentration, which needs more components than one stage digestion. With an easily degradable substrate, in two step digestion, over 80% of the theoretical gas production was freed within the first five days. Because the solid matter is degraded and reduced in space very quickly, it seems to be sufficient to construct a continuously fed hydrolysis, which has 2-3 times the volume of the daily waste input. A similar volume is needed for methanogenesis. This is less than a third of the volume of a solid waste reactor with 20 d SRT.http://www.biogas.ch/overview.htm

About more from
www.thecattlesite.com Yes, you read it correctly: The street lights in the Indian town of Thiruneermalai are run on digested curry. As National Geographic describes it, the human waste from an area housing complex collects in a sump, where the methane gas produced by the "sludge" is used to operate a generator. This biogas produces 3,000 watts of electricity daily, enough to keep the town bright at night. And you thought ovens running on garbage were gross. A friend who lived there this past spring tells me it never smelled bad, but then again, he's been known to generate a fair share of biogas himself. (Just kidding, Gelf!) [National Geographic] Tags:
