  1. 1. Anaerobic Digestion of Fractionated and Non-fractionated Sugar Beet Tops

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Kemiska institutionen

    Author : Johan Lindgren; [2014]
    Keywords : Anaerobic Digestion; Biogas; Biotechnology; Bioteknik; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Continuous stirred tank reactors (CSTR) and batch reactors were used to examine the difference in methane yields and process stability between fractionated and non-fractionated sugar beet leaves. The hypothesis of this project was that by reducing the amount of juice in the sugar beet leaves the amount of soluble sugars and other easily fermented compounds in the substrate will also decrease, and thereby lead to higher process stability.
