Variation characteristics of gas production, gas composition, VFA content and activity of coenzyme 1:42o in the simulated process were analyzed to discuss the influence of different substrates on lignite biogas generation. The results show that 0.1% methanol and 5 mg/L yeast extract solutions increase VFA contents in the biogas generation system (p 〈 0.05) and inhibit coenzyme F420 and methanogen activities significantly, so they decrease both gas amounts (p 〈 0.05) and CH4 contents (p 〈 0.05). 0.2 mol/L sodium acetate solution activates coenzyme F42o and methanogen activities and improves the efficiency of enzymatic reaction, so the gas quantity (p 〈 0.05) and the CH4 content (p 〈 0.01) increase significantly. Therefore, sodium acetate can be one kind of good exogenous substance for the generation of lignite biogenic gas.展开更多

Three levels of TS addition (0, 0.2, 0.4 mg/ml) were evaluated in the faunated and defaunated rumen fluid. Compared to the control, TS addition decreased the 24 h gas production in the faunated rumen fluid, but had a minor effect on gas yield in the defaunated rumen fluid. The TS significantly reduced methane production in vitro. In the faunated rumen fluid, 0.2 or 0.4 mg/ml TS decreased the 24 h methane emission by 12.7% or 14.0%, respectively. Rumen fluid pH value was affected neither by TS addition nor by defaunation. The TS addition had only minor effects on volatile fatty acids, but the yield and pattern of volatile fatty acids were greatly affected by defaunation. While the molar proportion of acetate was not affected by defaunation, the propionate was significantly increased and the butyrate significantly decreased. Ammonia-N concentration and microbial protein yield were influenced by TS inclusion and defaunation. Inclusion of 0.4 mg/ml TS increased the microbial protein mass by 18.4% and 13.8% and decreased the ammonia-N concentration by 8.3% and 19.6% in the faunated and defaunated rumen fluid, respectively. Protozoa counts were significantly reduced by TS inclusion. The current study demonstrated the beneficial effect of TS on methane production and rumen fermentation, and indicated that this may be due to the effect of the associated depression on protozoa counts.展开更多

A mixed integer non-linear programming(MINLP) model was established and solved with non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm Ⅱ, from which the Pareto fronts, the optimal technology combinations and operation conditions were obtained and analyzed. It's found that the system is feasible in both environmental and economic considerations after optimization. The most expensive processing section is decarbonization; the most expensive equipment is anaerobic digester; the most power-consuming processing section is digestion, followed by decarbonization and waste management. The positive green degree value on the process is attributed to processing section of digestion and waste management. 3:1 chicken feces and corn straw, solar energy, pressure swing adsorption and 3:1 chicken feces and rice straw, solar energy, pressure swing adsorption are turned out to be two robust technology combinations under different prices of methane and electricity by sensitivity analysis. The optimization results provide support for optimal design and operation of biogas production system considering environmental and economic objectives.展开更多

The later include natural wetlands,river and lake sediments, paddy field soils and landfills. In the last few decades, the biogeochemical cycle of carbon in anoxic environments, which leads to the production and emission of methane, a potent greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, has drawn great attentions from both scientific and public sectors. New organisms and mechanisms involved in methanogenesis and carbon cycling have been uncovered. Interspecies electron transfer is considered as a crucial step in methanogenesis in anoxic environments.Electron-carrying mediators, like H_2 and formate, are known to play the key role in electron transfer. Recently, it has been found that in addition to the conventional electron transfer via chemical mediators, direct interspecies electron transfer(DIET) can occur. In this Review, we describe the ecology and biogeochemistry of methanogenesis and highlight the effect of microbe-mineral interaction on microbial syntrophy. Recent advances in the study of DIET may pave the way towards a mechanistic understanding of methanogenesis and the influence of microbe-mineral interaction on this process.展开更多
