Co-digestion benefits Studies have shown that co- Patil et al.
digestion of several substrates 2014
have resulted in improved
methane yield by as much as 60%
compared to that obtained from
single substrates. Advantages
include better digestibility,
enhanced biogas
production/methane yield arising
from availability of additional
nutrients, as well as a more
efficient utilization of equipment
and cost sharing.
Biogas yield for water Methane generation from cabomba Osullivan et al.
hyacinth and water hyacinth is more than three 2010
times the highest yields from salvinia.
The small-scale tests yielded biogas
volumes of 292 ± 43 L kg−1 VS, 322
± 21 L kg−1 VS and 52 ± 55 L kg−1
VS for water hyacinth, cabomba and
salvinia, respectively.
Impact of the addition of The best methane yields from Osullivan et al.
excess nutrients water hyacinth are in the absence 2010
of added nutrients or manure.
