Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleINCREASING ANAEROBIC DIGESTION PERFORMANCE OF WASTEWATER WITH CO-DIGESTION USING DECANTER CAKEThaniya Kaosol, Narumol SohgrathokLow biogas production in the frozen seafood wastewater anaerobic digestion is observed due to the low organic and Total Solids (TS) contents in the wastewater. In this research the decanter cake will be used in the anaerobic co-digestion process to improve the biogas production rate. The effect of co-digestion and Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) will be investigated using the continuously … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 22 Sep 2014 · 7,359 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMicroflora Contribution to Cellulase and Digestion Enzyme in Mud Crab Digestive TractSiti Aslamyah, Yushinta Fujaya, Nita RukminasariMicroflora in the digestive tract of aquatic animals is thought to be not only the microbes that contribute to the production of cellulase enzymes but also contribute to other digestive enzymes, such as protease, amylase and lipase. This study aims to examine the microflora contribution to the mud crab’s digestive tract. Scylla sp. were maintained in the crab box individually … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 21, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2021 · 6,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInfluence of Dietary Curcumin on Rumen Fermentation, Macronutrient Digestion and Nitrogen Balance in Beef CattleT. Vorlaphim, M. Phonvisay, J. Khotsakdee et al.Abstract: Problem statement: Previous studies have shown that curcumin has antibacterial activity. It was hypothesized that the feeding of curcumin to ruminants may disturb rumen function and affect macronutrient digestibility and nitrogen utilization. Approach: In an experiment with Latin-square design, beef cattle were fed rations consisting of urea-treated rice straw and concentrates without or with 0.1 or 0.2% added curcumin. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 26 Jul 2011 · 9,152 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInteractive Effects of the Feeding of Leucaena Leaves and Curcumin on Macronutrient Digestion and Nitrogen Balance in Beef CattleC. Yuangklang, J. Khotsakdee, K. Vasupen et al.Abstract: Problem statement: The feeding of curcumin to beef cattle has been shown to increase nitrogen retention and decrease the apparent digestibility of acid detergent fiber in beef cattle. It was suggested that there could be interactions between the effects of curcumin and the composition of the ration. Approach: In this study with beef cattle, concentrates without or with curcumin … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 15 Dec 2010 · 8,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPrevention of Heat Stress in Lactating CowsVladimir Zaitsev, Vasily Korotkiy, Nadezhda Bogolyubova et al.In summer, when the air temperature rises, dairy cattle are very susceptible to heat stress, which results in a significant decline in productivity. The goal of the study is to assess how a Coniferous Energy Supplement (CES) made from raw materials derived from forestry waste affects lactating cows' ruminal digestion, milk production, and quality in extreme temperatures. Two sets of … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 19 Dec 2023 · 5,113 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsIsoquinoline Alkaloids and the Ionophore Monensin Supplemented Alone or Combined on Ruminal Fermentation and Nutrient Digestibility in Steers Fed a High-Energy DietJesús D. Urías-Estrada, Beatriz I. Castro-Pérez, Alfredo Estrada-Angulo et al.The aim of this experiment was to investigate the Influence of Alkaloids (IQA) and sodium Monensin (MON) supplementation on characteristics of ruminal fermentation, microbial protein synthesis and site and extend of digestion. For this, 4 cannulated steers were used in a 4×4 Latin square design. Treatments consisted of a high-energy basal diet supplemented with: (1) No additive (Control), (2) 15 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 3 · 7 Oct 2021 · 6,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUtilization of Rumen Content by Indigenous Microorganisms in a Modified Anaerobic DigesterAlhassan Salihu Adam, Sani Yahaya, Haruna Musa et al.The current work was designed to assess the effect of modification of model digester on the kinetics that affects efficiency in biogas generation using bovine rumen content as the feedstock. A biogas plant consisting of conventional and modified fixed-dome digesters (each with 2 m3 capacity) was established; and bovine rumen content was used as feedstock. Standard methods were used to … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 26 Sep 2020 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of Microwave Pretreatment on BMP of Decanter Cake from Palm Oil Mill FactoryThaniya Kaosol, Worawuth RungarunanotaiAnaerobic digestion is an effective method for treating decanter cake in the biogas production. Decanter cake usage is limited by its slow fiber degradation for anaerobic digestion process. The aim of this study is to study the possibility of using microwave pretreatment to enhance decanter cake digestibility. The power and heating time are the parameters that influence the biogas production … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 23 May 2016 · 7,625 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsKinetic Models for Anaerobic Fermentation Processes-A ReviewEmmanuel Amagu EchieguA review of basic kinetic models describing the generation of biomass and utilization of substrates in anaerobic fermentation processes is presented as well as the stoichiometric and empirical models for the prediction of biogas production. The applications of these models to anaerobic reactor systems such as the CSTR, activated sludge, plug flow reactor, etc are also presented. These models are … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 24 Jul 2015 · 8,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsASSESSMENT OF ORGANIC WASTE MANAGEMENT METHODS THROUGH ENERGY BALANCEAntonio Comparetti, Pierluigi Febo, Carlo Greco et al.In Italy, the Organic Fraction of Municipal Solid Waste (OFMSW) is nowadays landfilled or processed through aerobic composting. The Italian towns currently support a high cost for OFMSW disposal and cause a high environmental impact, because of long distances travelled from towns to a few available landfills and fewer treatment places, as well as the used waste management methods. An … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2014 · 7,212 accessesView PDFCite
