The Influence of Leachate Refluence on Dry Mesophilic Co-Fermentation

Abstract:

The main objectives of this research were to determine the effect of leachate refluence on biogas production for dry mesophilic co-fermentation of chicken manure and corn straw. The biogas production, the ratio of biogas production, methane content and pH were analyzed. The results showed that the leachate refluence has a significant impact on biogas production of dry co-fermentation. The cumulative biogas yield of the once in 48h has an increase by 10% and 5% for no reflux and once in 24h, respectively. The leachate refluence has little influence on the methane content, but it has good effect to keep pH in the optimum rang.
