Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study aims to recover volatile fatty acids (VFAs) from the anaerobic fermentation of industrial and municipal waste and investigate the effectiveness of using the produced VFAs as carbon sources for denitrification and as feedstocks for methane production via anaerobic digestion (AD) process. Six different wastes were used in this study, three industrial wastes: bakery processing and kitchen waste (BP+KW), whey powder (WP) and fat, oil, and grease (FOG), and three municipal wastes: food waste (FW), primary sludge (PS), and thickened waste activated sludge (TWAS). The experimental results showed that WP exhibited the maximum VFAs yield of 266 mg COD/ gTCOD added. In the denitrification experiments, all the fermentation filtrates exhibited higher specific denitrification rates (SDNRs) than conventional external carbon sources (i.e., methanol and acetate), with WP filtrate having the highest SDNR of 17.3 mg NOx-N/gVSS/hr. In the AD experiment, BP+KW and WP exhibited the highest methane yields of 354 and 350 mL CH4/ gTCOD added,respectively.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
