Abstract
|
|
|
|
In this study, the ability of Chlorella vulgaris and Dunaliella salina to use biomass resources for anaerobic digestive biogas production was examined. The differences in cell wall structure pretreatments affecting the yield of soluble products showed that D. salina is a better candidate for biogas production than C. vulgaris. There was no significant difference between pretreated and non-pretreated D. salina in terms of methane production yield by inocula obtained from anaerobic digestion systems. Therefore, D. salina is a suitable algal biomass for biogas production due to its high biomass productivity, simple pretreatment needs, and easy conversion to biogas.
