Methane, a greenhouse gas, is produced from the activity of methanogenic archaea under anaerobic conditions. Methanogenic activity is dominant in freshwater sediments; however, in estuarine sediments and brackish wetlands, the production and emission of methane has also been determined. Studies on methane emissions in tropical brackish environments have been carried...
Las emisiones de gases que contribuyen al calentamiento global son un grave problema para los ecosistemas y la humanidad debido a sus implicaciones en el cambio climático. Durante las últimas décadas, el crecimiento demográfico y el desarrollo industrial han dado lugar a la acumulación de gases como el CO2, CH4...
This thesis aimed to evaluate methane production in batch reactors and a laboratory-scale hybrid UASB reactor during physically pretreated slaughterhouse wastewater treatment. Therefore, the experiment was carried out in three stages: In the first stage, the slaughterhouse wastewater (SWW) underwent a thermal pretreatment (120 °C, 1 atm, 60 min), in...
