Semicontinuous Temperature-Phased Anaerobic Digestion (TPAD) of Organic Fraction of Municipal Solid Waste (OFMSW). Comparison with single-stage processes

Moreover, the results indicate that TPAD processes reach higher efficiencies for organic matter removal (16%, 10% and 30% for DOC, CODsoluble and VS, respectively) and higher methane yields (26-60%) than single-stage systems operating at similar SRT.
