Municipal solid waste - waste to energy conversion in India: an overview
Municipal solid waste (MSW) is generated in enormous quantities, in India, causing environmental problems. It is collected primarily by sweeping in India and dumped on the outskirts of urban areas, which pollute the environment. Such MSWs also release methane and carbon dioxide, which are important greenhouse gases. MSW comprises biodegradable material. The MSW disposal methods in India mainly ...

Remscheid pilot project: evaluation of a large scale trial of utilizing biodegradable waste bags for biowaste collection and treatment
Separate collection of organic waste may be considered as an integral part of contemporary waste management schemes. In this function it became widely accepted in the last ten years. It pursues the idea of a recycling economy according to the European hierarchy of waste - prevent, reduce, recycle - and is aimed at closing nutrient cycles. Nevertheless, separate collection at source essentially ...

Biohydrogen production by anaerobic co–digestion of press mud and domestic sewage
Anaerobic fermentation of press mud and sewage for biohydrogen production was conducted in six batch reactors for various total solid concentrations between 5–8.5%. Chemical oxygen demand, pH, total solid % for biohydrogen produced were monitored regularly. The experiments were conducted for 40 days to optimise the total solid content of the feed for maximum biohydrogen production. Effect of ...

Organic waste biodegradability test bio methane potential method
Management Summary The biogas production from a mixture of food waste, garden waste, paper, napkins, plastic, metals and glass and anaerobically digested sludge was monitored until gas production had ceased. The homogenised biowaste mixture was subjected to two pre-treatment methods prior to being fed to the BMP reactors, these were: pasteurisation at 70oC followed by anaerobic digestion ...

Using Mass Spectrometry to Research Thermal Hydrolysis of Waste
Mass spectrometry is used to research the thermal hydrolysis of waste materials to gain a deeper understanding of how changing parameters affect the outcomes of the process. Mass spectrometry, especially an instrument manufactured to analyse dissolved species, is ideal for waste materials as contaminants can be identified and measured. This blog post will look at the importance of thermal ...
