Psychrophilic anaerobic digestion of lignocellulosic biomass: A characterization study

- Cow feces and wheat straw psychrophilic anaerobic digestion is feasible at <32 days.
- Cow feces and wheat straw yielded around 235 Nl CH4 kg−1 VS fed.
- Cellulose, xylan, and their mixture achieved 95% conversion into CH4 in 35 days.
- Less than 20 days are required to achieve a conversion of 80%.
- Methane yield (Nl CH4 kg−1 VS) was 338 (cellulose), 310 (xylan), and 305 (mixture).
