A successful biogas production process depends upon adequate hydrolysis of
macromolecules in the substrate and stable further conversion. The complex and rigid …

The hydrolytic effect of a commercial enzymes mixture, containing mainly cellulose-
degrading and hemicellulose-degrading enzymes, was studied during the mesophilic …

Anaerobic fungi in the digestive tract of herbivores are one of the critical types of fiber-
degrading microorganisms present in the rumen. They degrade lignocellulosic materials …

In the generation of biogas, while the cellulose and hemicellulose components of
agricultural wastes are converted into methane and carbon dioxide, the third major …

With the rising demand for renewable energy and environmental protection, anaerobic
digestion of biogas technology has attracted considerable attention within the scientific …

Cellulosic compounds in manure limit the hydrolysis step in energy production from animal
waste under anaerobic conditions. Because anaerobic fungi produce plant carbohydrate …

Biological pretreatment is a promising technology to increase biogas yield. The methane
yield and microbial community resulting from anaerobic digestion of maize straw after …

The appropriate processing of various plant biomass residues into biofuels could address
the world's insatiable appetite for energy. To achieve such a goal, an efficient and …

The use of lignocellulosic biomass as a substrate in agricultural biogas plants is very
popular and yields good results. However, the efficiency of anaerobic digestion, and thus …

A biological pretreatment with new complex microbial agents was used to pretreat corn
straw at ambient temperature (about 20° C) to improve its biodegradability and anaerobic …
