Anaerobic digestion of sugar beet pulp in Russia

Abstract: Russian agriculture generates approximately 250 Mio t dry matter of organic waste every year, which cannot be recycled usefully. Sugar beet pulp is one of this waste materials in some regions. The utilisation of these residues for biogas production can reduce negative environmental effects and can play an important role to achieve the Russian climate protection goals. Therefore, the aim of this study is to examine, if a substitution of corn silage with sugar beet pulp is possible. For this investigation a simple batch test was developed. Subsequently the degradation of the ingredients according to Weender, the biogas yields and the degradation kinetics were determined. A total degradation by approximately 40 % of the ingredients according to Weender was detected at both substrates. At the substrate sugar beet pulp a 35 % lower biogas yield was detected, because the pH-value in the reactor declined resulting in inhibition of the biogas production. This results show that a substit.... https://www.landtechnik-online.eu/landtechnik/article/view/71
