Linking microbial community assembly with functionality in lab-scale anaerobic digestion bioreactors: a replicate experimental approach KU Leuven
Anaerobic digestion (AD) is the microbiological conversion of organic material under anaerobic conditions, leading to the formation of biomass, biogas and a nutrient rich digestate. The process is gaining an increasing interest because of its potential for simultaneous waste stabilisation and valorisation. Using AD, methane-rich biogas as well as valuable chemicals and a nutrient-rich residue can be produced from organic material in solid ...
