Mitigation of acidogenic product inhibition and elevated mass transfer by biochar during anaerobic digestion of food waste.
2021
Anaerobic digestion (AD) of food waste is widely accepted as a promising technology for both waste disposal and resource recovery. With the advancing of AD technology, to exploit the capacity of organic waste for maximum energy/resource recovery becomes the new focus and hence, improve the viability of this technology for practical application. Product inhibition and mass transfer are the common limitations encountered during AD of putrescible organic waste. Biochar materials have been widely used to promote AD process in recent years. This review summarizes the mechanism and regulation strategies of biochar and its modified derivatives in promoting AD of solid waste (mainly food waste) from the three aspects of hydrolysis, syntrophic acetogenesis, and methane production. At the same time, the relationship between carbon materials and electron transfer among anaerobic microbes is summarized from the perspective of microbial community. In addition, the market application of this technology was evaluated.
