Factors Affecting Methane Production | Microbiology

Following are the factors affecting methane production: 1. Slurry: Proper solubilisation of organic materials (the ratio between solid and water) should be 1:1 when it is house hold type. 2. Seeding: In the beginning, seeding of slurry with small amount of sludge of another digester activates methane evolution. Sludge contains acetogenic and methanogenic bacteria. 3. pH: For the production of [...]
