Abstract
The effects of different ratios of food waste (FW) containing garlic and excess sludge (ES) on the anaerobic co-digestion (AcoD) process were investigated. This was done by establishing a sequencing batch anaerobic digester and analyzing phosphorus release patterns, microbial community structure and gene function in the AcoD system with 1:1, 1:2, 1:4, and 1:8 ratio of FW to ES. The highest phosphine (PH3) gas output of 1619.99 mg/m3 was observed when FW:ES was 1:1. The relative abundance of Methanothrix increased from 7.99 % to 9.36 % with variation the ratio of FW:ES from 1:4–1:8. The contents of phnD and phnE genes in the ratio of 1:4 FW:ES group were the highest among all experimental groups, with 0.0010 % and 0.0018 %, respectively. In addition, the abundance of functional genes responsible for encoding acetate kinase in the 1:4 FW:ES group increased by 152.96 % relative to the control group. Tests determined the optimal FW to ES ratios to achieve 1:4 and 1:8, and provided suitable operating conditions and references for the subsequent AcoD research.
