Developing High-Yield and Resilient Anaerobic Co-Digestion of Alternative Wastes
This project explored the anaerobic co-digestion of food waste with two different co-substrates, thickened waste activated sludge (in the wet system) and decomposing municipal solid…

Recovering high-value acids from anaerobic co-digestion of municipal solid and grease interceptor waste using an electrically-driven separation process
Executive summary Re-engineering the anaerobic co-digestion (co-AD) of organic-rich, municipal solid waste (MSW) to yield high-value chemical products could improve the economics of organic waste…

Estimating Degradable Organic Carbon (DOC) Values & the Impact of Non-MSW Materials
In landfills, biogas production is the result of anaerobic degradation of organic wastes. The amount of degradable organic carbon (DOC) in landfilled organics (e.g. paper,…

Accelerating and Stabilizing Anaerobic Digestion by Promoting Direct Interspecies Electron Transfer
The purpose of this research was to determine whether the anaerobic digestion of wastes can be mproved by promoting direct interspecies electron transfer (DIET) between…
