Abstract
⺠Automatic methane potential test system (AMPTS) was used to evaluate biogas potential of sugarcane bagasse (SCB). ⺠The reliability of AMPTS was confirmed by the reproducible results obtained during anaerobic digestion of sodium acetate. ⺠Combined pretreatment with dilute acid and enzymatic hydrolysis resulted in conversion of 79% monomeric sugars from SCB. ⺠Highest methane yield (+200%) was obtained from acid and enzyme treated SCB, compared to that of raw bagasse. ⺠The effect of enzymatic saccharification in acid pretreated SCB increased the methane yield by 16%.
