Modeling of anaerobic co-digestion of pig manure and domestic organic waste

The normal practice in Thailand is that the wastes from pig-farms and households are
treated separately. Nutrient imbalance as well as other physico-chemical
characteristics of each waste cause the anaerobic digestion process to work at
suboptimal rates. This work is an attempt to describe the kinetics of anaerobic codigestion
of wastewater mixture from a pig-farm and domestic organic waste to
understand the effect of their ratio on the biogas production efficiency in batch
digesters which mimic a similar industrial practice. The batch experiments were
carried out at three different temperatures (28 oC, 32oC and 35oC ), with and without
initial pH adjustment (pH 7), and four levels of total solid (8%,12%,16% and 20% TS). It
was found that the best operating condition was 35 oC, 16% TS and the pig-manureto-domestic-waste
ratio of 75:25. The modified Gompertz equation was used to
estimate some Monod parameters and biomethane potential. Then modified twosubstrate
Monod equation was used to estimate the maximum specific biogas
production rate (MBPR). It was also used to describe the microbial growth, substrate
consumption and biogas production satisfactorily.
