The understanding and enrichment of consortia formed by syntrophic butyrate-oxidizing bacteria and methanogens in the complex environment are crucial for effectively degrading butyrate and preventing acid inhibition. In this study, the better butyrate-tolerated and highly efficient microbial consortia were domesticated and enriched through adding butyric acid ranging from 0.2 to 4.4 g/(L·d). The volumetric biogas production continuously increased to 1.65 L/(L·d). Microbial community diversity showed that a dramatic shift of bacterial structure occurred at BAL of 1.6 g/(L·d) and the structure presented better stability at high BAL. The syntrophic consortia and the main metabolic pathways were revealed through combination of the 16S rDNA and metagenome sequencing analyses. Syntrophomonas was the major butyrate-oxidizing bacterium and oxidized butyrate mainly through β-oxidaiton. Synergistaceae and Mesotoga acted as the main acetate-oxidizing bacteria. IHT and methanogenesis pathways were strongly enhanced by DMER64 and Methanosarcina as the main H carrier and dominant methanogen, respectively.

Wide commercial applications of chitosan in food preservation and green packaging fields inevitably lead to the universal existence in food, as well as the food waste (FW) processing system. However, whether and how the chitosan, a class of biomacromolecule substances, lead to dysfunction of anaerobic digestion (AD) process of FW remains less understood. Herein, chitosan exhibited an inhibition-and-relief effect with the AD process proceeding, and 80 mg/g-FW of chitosan decreased the net methane yield of FW by 24.

It is known that the presence of sulfate decreases the methane yield in the anaerobic digestion systems. Sulfate-reducing bacteria can convert sulfate to hydrogen sulfide competing with methanogens for substrates such as H and acetate. The present work aims to elucidate the microbial interactions in biogas production and assess the effectiveness of electron-conductive materials in restoring methane production after exposure to high sulfate concentrations.

Anaerobic digestion (AD) of nitrogen-rich substrates often suffers from the issue of ammonia inhibition. Although bioaugmentation has been used to assist AD with high ammonia concentration, the combined effect of domesticated syntrophic consortium (MC) together with biochar on ammonia inhibited AD are still unknown. In the present study, MC was adapted and enriched by purposive domestication.

Low temperatures result in poor anaerobic digestion (AD). To investigate whether bioaugmentation can improve anaerobic co-digestion of cattle manure and corn straw at 20 °C, five different doses of methanogenic propionate-degrading culture (4%, 8%, 12%, 14%, and 16%) were added to batch AD systems to compare bioaugmentation performance. The results showed that the methane production of all the bioaugmented digesters was enhanced compared to the control, increasing 2.
