Through analyzing and detecting the leaching pollutant (COD) in two bioreactors, anaerobic phased solid digester system and leachate direct-recirculating landfill, the changing rule of municipal solid waste and the characteristics of methanogenesis were studied. The results showed that anaerobic phased solid digester system accelerated the process of degrading municipal solid waste and stabilizing landfill site. The relationship between the leaching pollutant (COD) and refuse age was logarithmic linear correlation. More than 80% of biogas in volume occured in the methanogenisis bioreactor, the methane content in which was 55%-69%. The preferable volumetric COD loading rate of the methanogenisis bioreactor was 6.5-7.5 g/(L x d).

Nanobubble water (NBW) or temperature-phased anaerobic digestion assisted by microbial electrolysis cell (MEC-TPAD) can promote sludge hydrolysis and methanogenesis. However, the role of the combined application of NBW and MEC-TPAD in terms of anaerobic performance and related microbial properties remains unclear. This study investigated the impact of Air-NBW on hydrolysis and methanogenesis of dewatered sludge MEC-TPAD.

Article Synopsis
  • * A techno-economic assessment (TEA) evaluated different treatment processes, comparing traditional mesophilic AD and innovative methods like temperature-phased AD and thermo-alkali pre-treatment.
  • * The findings showed that while temperature-phased AD slightly increased biogas production, it wasn't cost-effective, whereas thermo-alkali pre-treatment significantly enhanced biogas yield, highlighting varying economic feasibility for WWTPs depending on pre-treatment methods.

Temperature-phased anaerobic digestion (TPAD) and microbial electrolysis cell (MEC) are both able to improve hydrolysis and methane yield during anaerobic digestion (AD) of dewatered sludge. However, the effect of TPAD and MEC integration at different temperatures and different phases is unclear. This study investigated the effect of the integration of intermittent energization MEC in different phases of TPAD on the digestion of dewatered sludge.

Sludge is a major by-product and the final reservoir of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Temperature-phased anaerobic digestion (TPAD), consisting of thermophilic anaerobic digestion (AD) (55 °C) and mesophilic AD processes (37 °C), has been implemented in WWTPs for sludge reduction while improving the biomethane production. However, the impact of TPAD on the ARGs' fate is still undiscovered in lab-scale experiments and full-scale WWTPs.
