Abstract
It was found that reactors with temporal as well as spatial distribution have a higher methane yield than a continuous stirred tank reactor. But the maximal possible space-time yield is lower. Reactors with an increased solid retention time can be operated at space-time yields of another order of magnitude, which leads to smaller reactors for a desired methane production rate.
