Lignocellulosic biomass is the most abundant renewable bioresource on earth. In
lignocellulosic biomass, the cellulose and hemicellulose are bound with lignin and other …

Maize and grass silages are the main feedstock for anaerobic digestion in agricultural
biogas plants. High-quality silage is necessary for high methane yields. Grasses should be …

Biogas substrates are typically moist, which can make them difficult to store because
bacteria and mould can grow on them. Ensiling, which involves the production of acid by …

Background Enzymatic treatment of lignocellulosic material for increased biogas production
has so far focused on pretreatment methods. However, often combinations of enzymes and …

Tetracyclines and sulfonamides are among the most commonly applied antibiotics in
veterinary medicine and can be frequently detected in manure samples worldwide. The …

Solid state anaerobic digestion, as a safe and environment-friendly technology to dispose
municipal solid wastes, can produce methane and reduce the volume of wastes. In order to …

Enzymatic reactions refer to organic reactions catalyzed by enzymes. This review aims to
enrich the documentation relative to enzymatic reactions occurring during the anaerobic …

Germany developed an energy policy aiming at reducing its dependency on conventional
energy sources, which allowed the country to emerge as the leading producer of biogas …

Pretreatment of organic solid substrates (OSS) for bioenergy and biofuel recovery practices
has been viewed as one of the most expensive processing steps in the past decades. But, in …

In den Pflanzenzellwänden befindliche Polysaccharide stehen dem Prozess nur bedingt als
Energiequelle zur Verfügung, da diese in einem Komplex mit Lignin verknüpft sind. Um …
