摘要: Anaerobic digestion of Chinese cabbage waste was investigated through a pilot-scale two-stage digester at a mesophilic temperature of 37 ℃. In the acidification digester, the main product was acetic acid, with the maximum concentration of 4289 mg·L-1 on the fourth day, accounting for 50.32% of total volatile fatty acids. The oxidation reduction potential (ORP) and NH4+-N level decreased gradually with hydraulic retention time (HRT) of acidification. In the second digestion phase, the maximum methanogenic bacterial concentration reached 9.6×1010 ml-1 at the organic loading rate (OLR) of 3.5-4 kg VS·m-3, with corresponding HRT of 12-16 days. Accordingly, the optimal biogas production was 0.62 m3·(kg VS)-1, with methane content of 65%-68%. ORP and NH4+-N levels in the methanizer remained between -500 and -560 mV and 2000-4500 mg·L-1, respectively. Methanococcus and Methanosarcina served as the main methanogens in the anaerobic digester.
