Mass loss controlled thermal pretreatment system to assess the effects of pretreatment temperature on organic matter solubilization and methane yield from food waste.
The effects of thermal pretreatment (TP) on the main characteristics of food waste (FW) and its biochemical methane potential (BMP) and distribution of volatile fatty acids (VFAs) under mesophilic condition (35 ⁰C) were investigated. The TP experiments were carried out at 80 °C, 100 °C, 120 °C for 2...
