Embodiment 1

[0233] Example 1: Enzymatic liquefaction of biomass raw material for biogas production

[0234] The washing process is carried out under alkaline conditions, the purpose of which is to remove the soluble fraction of lignin and to swell the biomass material. Alkaline soluble compounds removed during washing include unwanted inhibitory substances to microorganisms and enzymes used in subsequent processing. During or after washing, cell wall degrading enzymes are used to enzymatically liquefy the biomass material and open up the recalcitrant structure of the biomass, which allows easier digestion of cellulose and other fermentable materials.

[0235] The main structural polysaccharides of lignocellulosic materials are generally composed of cellulose, hemicellulose (rich in neutral sugars), pectin materials containing D-galacturonic acid residues and mannan, which in different plant species It exists in combination with lignin in different proportions.

[0261] 1. Grind 200 g of straw material for 2 minutes using a coffee grinder Bosch KM13 (E nr: MKM 6003FD 9512). A slurry of ground straw was prepared using 2000 mL of 1.2% NaOH with slow stirring at room temperature for 2 hours.

[0262] 2. Pour the material on a separating sieve with a mesh size of 0.295 mm, wash the material on the sieve with about 15 L of tap water and press with a spoon.

[0263] 3. Measure the pH of the filter cake to 8.1 using a WTW pH meter.

Abstract

A biogas production process with enzymatic pre-treatment, said process comprising the steps of providing a slurry comprising a lignocellulose-containing material, water and one or more enzyme; allowing the one or more enzyme to degrade the lignocellulose-containing material at a suitable temperature and pH; and adding the enzyme-degraded material to a biogas digester tank at a suitable rate and ratio to effectively convert the material to biogasin the digester.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method of biogas production with enzymatic pretreatment, said method comprising the steps of: providing a slurry comprising lignocellulose-containing material, water and one or more enzymes; at an appropriate temperature and pH, allowing the degrading the lignocellulose-containing material by the one or more enzymes; and adding the enzymatically degraded material to a biogas digester tank at an appropriate rate and ratio to efficiently convert the material in the digester for biogas. Background technique [0002] Most natural plant-based materials contain significant amounts of lignocellulosic fibers, which are either indigestible or only slowly digestible in many biological systems. As a result, for many biological processes that transform plant-based material, a significant portion of the treated material is not digested or is only poorly digested during processing. [0003] For example, in typical biogas producti...
