Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

This study investigated the use of biochar, derived from a wood gasifier, in semi-dry anaerobic digestion of organic fraction of municipal solid waste (OFMSW). The experiment was conducted in three phases, without biochar and changing the hydraulic retention time (HRT) from 50 to 15 days until first acidification condition (on pH = 6.5), with biochar at an optimal concentration of 30 g/L in HRT= 20–10 day. Also, countermeasures for the acidified reactor with biochar during the dormancy period were investigated. The results demonstrated that adding biochar led to a rapid recovery of the acidified reactor, improved stability parameters, and removed foaming as a disturbance. Biochar addition (30 g/L) enhanced the organic loading rate (OLR) up to 11 kgVS/m3.day with an HRT of 20 days leading to specific methane production of 383 L/kgVS and a volumetric production increase of biomethane by 85 %. However, at higher OLRs with HRT of 10 days, acidification condition resurfaced leading to homogeneous foaming. Excess adding of biochar did not have significant treatment effects but necessitated a no-feeding period (about 45 days) and gentle stirring with long intervals for stable conditions. Overall, the use of biochar along with the OFMSW biogas plant was demonstrated to enhance production efficiency. • Biochar adding explored in semi-dry anaerobic digestion of OFMSW in a CSTR. • Biochar improves stability and 85 % increase in the volumetric methane production. • Increasing OLR to 11 kgVS/m 3 .day at HRT of 20 days. • Biochar addition had therapeutic properties and restored severe VFA inhibition. • Lowering HRT to 10 days caused homogeneous foaming with biochar.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
