Anaerobic digestion

A good diet is vital to the health and happiness of a horse and it ensures that they perform at their best. Horses are non-ruminant animals, meaning they have a simple, one chamber stomach similar to humans, dogs, and pigs. However, their diets are very different since horses are able to digest and absorb nutrients from foods that most other non-ruminant animals cant. This special ability is due to the horse’s very well developed cecum and their large capacity for nutrient absorption. The cecum…

Salivary glands produce saliva in order to keep parts of the digestive system (such as the mouth) moist. This helps break down carbohydrates for digestion. The third type of digestive system is the ruminant digestive system. The ruminant digestive system occurs in organisms who possess stomachs with four compartments (the rumen, the reticulum, the omasum, and the abomasum). This digestive system is…

Lipid Digestion: Absorption and Transport of Lipids Lipid digestion occurs primarily in the small intestine though a small amount of lipids are broken down in the stomach. Special enzymes called lipases breakdown triglycerides the most abundant lipids in the diet and phospholipids. Lingual lipase secreted by glands in the tongue and gastric lipase secreted by gastric chief cells hydrolyze a small amount of triglycerides into fatty acids and monoglycerides. As chyme enters the duodenum from the…

concentrated. Bile is a yellow-green substance containing bile salts, bile pigments, cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids, proteins and a wide variety of electrolytes. Though from all those substances, just phospholipids and bile salts help to the digestion of fats. (Marieb and Hoehn, 2015) A healthy adult is able to produce in a daily basis an approximate amount of 400-1100ml hepatic bile which is produced in…

3.1 Biogenesis of methane In anaerobic digestion there are four stages: hydrolysis, acidification, acetogenesis and methane production (Sagagi et al; 2009; Rai 2004). Different microorganisms play a significant role in each stage ofthe processes. Therefore, intervention and follow up in all the stages is essential for enhanced and optimum methane production. 3.1.1 Enzymatic hydrolysis Enzymatic hydrolysis is the process where the fats, starches and proteins…

ANAEROBIC DIGESTION MODEL (ADM1) The ADM1 as proposed by the IWA Task Group for Mathematical Modelling of Anaerobic Digestion Processes (Batstone et al., 2002a) is a structured but highly complex model which describes 7 groups of bacteria and archaea (included in a total of 32 dynamic state concentration variables) catalyzing 19 biochemical kinetic processes coupled to 105 kinetic and stoichiometric parameters. The set of differential equations (DE) of the ADM1 for the calculation of the…

volumes must be disposed to landfill.  The operating costs are very high compared with other techniques.  Low yields for markets. Aerobic MBT Anaerobic MBT Mechanical Biological Stabilization Mechanical Physical Stabilization. It requires low investment costs. Higher investment costs Reliable aerobic process. Simple and most reliable MBT. MBTs with anaerobic are more complex. Increased risks in fire 50% and more landfill diversion in spite of the simple technique. Operation requires high…

“This is by far the worst water quality we’ve ever seen in our sailing careers,” said Ivan Bulaja, a coach for an Austrian team training at Guanabara Bay in Rio de Janeiro, where the 2016 Olympics will be held. The waters are polluted with sewage, dead fish, and trash, posing a serious threat to athletes training or competing there. Kristina Mena, a professor of public health, is an expert in water quality, and conducted a risk test for athletes competing in the waters Rio, assuming they would…
