Anaerobic co-digestion of pineapple wastes with cow dung: effect of different total solid content on bio-methane yield

The abundance of agricultural wastes produced from pineapple processing and livestock industries has resulted in the difficulties of disposing of a large amount of waste. Anaerobic digestion is a way to reduce waste and generate renewable energy sources including biogas. In this study, pineapple was...

description The abundance of agricultural wastes produced from pineapple processing and livestock industries has resulted in the difficulties of disposing of a large amount of waste. Anaerobic digestion is a way to reduce waste and generate renewable energy sources including biogas. In this study, pineapple waste is co-digested with cow dung in batch experiments under mesophilic temperature at 38±1°C at a working volume of 100 ml in 125 ml serum bottle. The effects of the total solid on methane yields are investigated at a different substrate ratio. The batch study is conducted at 3 different total solid which are 12%, 20% and 28% and at three different substrate ratio cow dung to pineapple waste (CD: PW) (1:1, 1:2 and 1:3). Daily biogas collection for 28% total solid at 1:1 ratio results in the highest cumulative biogas production of 313 ml, followed by 28% total solid at 1:3 ratio with 246 ml biogas yield. The highest methane yield is achieved at 12% total solid with a 1:2 ratio (17.19 CH4/g VS). Results show that at 12% total solid produces the highest methane yield at all ratios compared to other total solid percentages. Moreover, methane yield decreases as the total solid percentage increases from 12% to 28%. Overall, the production of methane from pineapple wastes co-digested with cow dung is proven to be a good strategy to minimise solid wastes.
