Various process challenges within the field of anaerobic digestion are commonly recognized. For instance, the degradation process is too slow and inefficient, or the presence of toxic substances or nutrients is poorly managed. In this article, the current challenges are discussed and various recommendations are made. When these are followed, it is expected that the advancements in the research related to anaerobic digestion will progress much faster. This will lead to a quicker solution to the current technological challenges.
Read MoreThis is a short description of an industrial application where AMPTS II Light has been used to identify the microbiological reason of a poorly operated Italian biogas plant, which naturally led to a correct rescue solution.
Read MoreThis is a short description of an industrial application where AMPTS II Light has been used to optimise the dosing of micronutrients and give quick restart of a failure Italian biogas plant.
