Smart and Hybrid Approach for Early Stabilization of Anaerobic Bioreactor Landfill
摘要
The municipal solid waste management in developing countries is dependent on unscientific method of landfilling resulting into environmental concerns. The anaerobic bioreactor landfill is the scientific method of addressing the problem. Researchers have worked on the enhancing the rate of degradation of substrate by adopting the various strategies but very few have worked on maturation phase of anaerobic phase. The study focused on conceptualizing and experimenting with the hybrid approach in which the anerobic process is converted into the aerobic process after the partial methanogenesis is completed for early stabilization of the substrate in the reactor. Results have confirmed that the reactor R3 and reactor R4 which adopted the hybrid approach along with the enhancement techniques in hydrolysis and maturation phase have reduced the carbon from the substrate by 72.36% and 76.64% respectively. Also, reactor R4 have stabilized the carbohydrates and have reduced them by 64.71%
