In der Studie wurden die Auswirkungen der rasanten, regional sehr unterschiedlichen Ausdeh-nung der Biogaserzeugung und des dafür erforderlichen Energiepflanzenanbaus auf die innersektoralen Wechselwirkungen, die Boden- und Pachtmärkte sowie auf die Ernährungs- und Futtermittelindustrie...

A German-Brazilian research project investigates sugarcane as an energy plant in anaerobic digestion for biogas production. The aim of the project is a continuous, efficient, and stable biogas process with sugarcane as the substrate. Tests are carried out in a fermenter with a volume of 10 l. In...

Modified tapioca starch wastewater (MTSW) contains organic and inorganic matters that affected on biological wastewater treatment and biogas production. Especially, the wastewater from chemical modification processes contains high salinity that can inhibit microorganism activities. Zero valent...

The strong political support for biogas production in Germany over the past decade has greatly affected agricultural production, farms and land markets. This paper analyzes the effects of Germany's biogas policies on agricultural development by using the agent-based simulation model AgriPoliS....

To fully model the anaerobic digestion process, biological and physico-chemical background, the kinetics of bacterial growth, substrate degradation and product formation have to be taken into account. The presented approaches differ depending on the requirements and the developer of the model....

Dry anaerobic digestion (DAD) is an attractive method for the stabilization of solid organic waste with high solid concentration (22–40%). This article provides different aspects for bio-energy production through dry anaerobic digestion suggested by different researchers. Basic fundamental...
