Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present some guidelines for biomethane potential assays prepared by the Task Group for the Anaerobic Biodegradation, Activity and Inhibition Assays of the International Water Association.

TL;DR: Recommendations on items that strongly influence the outcome of BMP tests such as inoculum characteristics, substrate preparation, test setup, and data analysis are presented to increase the probability of obtaining validated and reproducible results.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaerobic digestion of lipid-rich waste - Effects of lipid concentration
TL;DR: The results showed that the higher the enzyme concentration, the more accentuated was the inhibition of methane production and the process was able to recover from the inhibition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anaerobic biodegradation of oleic and palmitic acids : evidence of mass transfer limitations caused by long chain fatty acid accumulation onto the anaerobic sludge
TL;DR: The results evidenced that LCFA accumulation onto the sludge can create a physical barrier and hinder the transfer of substrates and products, inducing a delay on the initial methane production.
Book ChapterDOI
Dyes—Environmental Impact and Remediation
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an important class of synthetic organic compounds used in many industries, especially textiles, which have become common industrial environmental pollutants during their synthesis and later during fibre dyeing.
