Anaerobic bioconversion of municipal solid wastes using a novel high-solids reactor design : maximum organic loading rate and comparison with low-solids reactor systems

Novel, laboratory-scale, high-solids reactors operated under mesophilic conditions were used to study the anaerobic fermentation of processed municipal solid waste (MSW) to methane. Product gas rate data were determined for organic loading rates ranging from 2.99-18.46 g of volatile solids (VS) per...

description Novel, laboratory-scale, high-solids reactors operated under mesophilic conditions were used to study the anaerobic fermentation of processed municipal solid waste (MSW) to methane. Product gas rate data were determined for organic loading rates ranging from 2.99-18.46 g of volatile solids (VS) per liter (L) per day (d). The data represent the anaerobic fermentation at high-solids levels within the reactor of 21-32%, while feeding a refuse-derived fuel (RDF)/MSW feedstock supplemented with a vitamin/mineral/nutrient solution. The average biogas yield was 0.59 L biogas/g VS added to the reactor system/d. The average methane composition of the biogas produced was 57.2%. The data indicate a linear relationship of increasing total biogas production with increasing organic loading rate to the process. The maximum organic loading rate obtainable with high-solids anaerobic digestion is in the range of 18-20 g VS/L-d to obtain 80% or greater bioconversion for the RDF/MSW feedstock. This loading rate is approximately four to six times greater than that which can be obtained with comparable low-solids anaerobic bioreactor technology. 34 refs., 6 figs.
