Methane production from anaerobic co-digestion of orange peel waste and organic fraction of municipal solid waste in batch and semi-continuous reactors

Rokaya Bouaita et al.

Summary: A large amount of orange peel waste is produced every year due to high orange production worldwide. This waste is often dumped without proper treatment, causing environmental issues. Anaerobic digestion is suggested as an effective treatment for orange peel waste, but the high content of limonene can inhibit the biological activity. Anaerobic co-digestion with organic fraction of municipal solid waste can reduce the limonene concentration. The limonene content is directly related to the organic loading rate, and the maximum stable organic loading rate was found to be 2 g(VS)(L-1.day(-1)).
