Improvement of Water Hyacinth Bioconversion by Different Organic and Mineral Acid Pretreatment and the Effect of Post-pretreatment Washing

Marttin Paulraj Gundupalli et al.

Summary: The study demonstrates that acid pretreatment of water hyacinth can significantly enhance enzymatic saccharification, ethanol, and biogas production. Citric acid pretreatment yields the highest ethanol production, while oxalic acid pretreatment yields the highest biogas production. The structural changes in pretreated water hyacinth impact the yield of biofuels.

The Influence of Biochar Augmentation and Digestion Conditions on the Anaerobic Digestion of Water Hyacinth

Jessica Quintana-Najera et al.

Summary: This study evaluates the effect of biochar addition on the anaerobic digestion of water hyacinth. The results show that under optimal processing conditions, the addition of biochar can improve methane yield and production rate. However, the effect of biochar may be less pronounced when working with complex substrates.

Water Hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) Detection Using Coarse and High Resolution Multispectral Data

Luis Padua et al.

Summary: Efficient detection and monitoring of invasive plant species in aquatic ecosystems is crucial. This study used multispectral data with different spatial resolutions to detect water hyacinth. The results showed that the random forest classifier achieved the highest overall accuracy. The high spatial resolution of UAV data allowed for the detection of small amounts of water hyacinth, while satellite data analysis enabled the identification of water hyacinth coverage.

Biochemical methane potential of water hyacinth and the organic fraction of municipal solid waste using leachate from Mexico City's Bordo Poniente composting plant as inoculum

L. A. Romero De Leon et al.

Summary: This study found that the biochemical methane potential of water hyacinth and municipal solid waste in Mexico City could be effectively managed through anaerobic digestion and anaerobic codigestion processes. The substrate-to-inoculum ratio played a significant role in volatile solids degradation. Anaerobic digestion of municipal solid waste with a S:I ratio of 1:1 produced more methane than anaerobic codigestion, but the difference was not statistically significant. Overall, the research highlighted the potential of using anaerobic digestion for renewable energy production and addressing the issues associated with water hyacinth, municipal solid waste, and leachate.
