Linking pyrolysis and anaerobic digestion (Py-AD) for the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass

- Lignocellulose pyrolysis products convertible into biogas by adapted microbial consortia.
- Bioaugmentation with ligninolytic bacterial and archaeal communities enhances biomethanation.
- Biochar promotes biogas production and upgrading.
- Pyrolysis of digestate increases biomass to fuel yield.
- Coupling pyrolysis and anaerobic digestion expands biomass resource available for biomethane.
