Nanobubbles (NBs) technology has been proven to promote methane production from anaerobic digestion (AD). In this study, the synergistic effects of (CH + CO)-nanobubble water ((CH + CO)-NBW) combined with varying particle sizes of corn straw on the AD were investigated. As findings, adding (CH + CO)-NBW effectively promoted the methane production from AD of corn straw with different particle sizes. The maximum cumulative methane yield (186.42 mL/ g-volatile solids) was achieved in Group a with the addition of (CH + CO)-NBW, representing a 16.89 % increase compared to the control. Furthermore, (CH + CO)-NBW could enhance the enzymatic activity. The activities of β-glucosidase and coenzyme F were increased by 6.70 % and 11.48 %, respectively. The results of microbial community structure revealed that the addition of (CH + CO)-NBW could improve the abundance of dominant bacteria (norank_JS1, norank_Aminicenantales, and Bacteroidetes_vadinHA17) and archaea (Methanomassiliicoccaceae, Methanobacteriaceae, and norank_Bathyarchaeia). This study provides new insights into the application of nanobubbles in the AD of biomass.
