| Abstract: | Conventional biodegradable agricultural and household wastes (sorghum
stalks, sawdust, rice and beans wastes) have been biodegraded in a mini pilot
bio-digester at 33°C. The volume ofbiogas formed in each of the systems was
determined and the relative degradability of the substrates compared. When
ranked, the substrates performed as follows: softwood sawdust> maize stalk
> guinea corn stalk> hardwood sawdust> beans alone> beans/rice mix. |
