Abstract

The knowledge of nutrient composition of specific substrate(s) for anaerobic digestion for the production of biogas can provide first-hand information on the possible outcome of digesting such feedstock. It will also help in planning the construction of large-scale biogas plants based on the awareness of the substrates output quantity of biodegradation products. This paper aims to present feedstock information, yield of the bioprocess and bioenergy capacity of products from anaerobic digestion for comparison, studies and analysis.
