The dynamics of chemical species concentrations were monitored through High-performance Thin-Layer Chromatography. Maximum productivities were achieved at 35 °C and 60 °C for biodiesel (293.24 and 299.02 g kg biocat⁻¹ h⁻¹, respectively), at 40 °C for diglycerides (1018.36 g kg biocat⁻¹ h⁻¹), and at 35 °C for monoglycerides (560.75 g kg biocat⁻¹ h⁻¹). Maximum yields were determined at 30 °C for fatty acid ethyl esters (0.56 g gT_G⁻¹), and at 40 °C for diglycerides (0.53 g gT_G⁻¹) and monoglycerides (0.30 g gT_G⁻¹). Based on the experimental findings, a kinetic model was formulated encompassing three reversible transesterification reactions. Individual reactions were structured following classical biochemical kinetics, inclusive of ethanol inhibition. Model fitting was executed through non-linear multivariable regression techniques, with the minimum of the average coefficient of variation of the residuals (ACV_R) serving as the objective function. The resulting fit of the kinetic model to the experimental data proved satisfactory, with an ACV_R of less than 5 % across all instances.

Utilizing the decomposition of magnesite in an atmosphere containing ¹³CO₂ as a case study, the reaction behavior and kinetics were investigated using a micro fluidized bed reaction analyzer (MFBRA). The results reveal that ¹³CO₂ in the atmosphere hinders the decomposition process, thereby increasing the time required for complete decomposition. The activation energy was observed to increase with the concentration of ¹³CO₂ in the reaction atmosphere. Compared to the results obtained from thermogravimetric analysis (TG), the activation energy and pre-exponential factor values determined by the MFBRA are lower. Due to the excessive suppression caused by the accumulation of product gas within the sample crucible, the apparent activation energy calculated based on TG data was overestimated, particularly in atmospheres containing the product gas CO₂. The MFBRA, operating in an environment characterized by essentially eliminated external gas diffusion, extensive gas–solid mixing, and high rates of mass and heat transfer, has proven to be highly capable of accurately determining the kinetics of carbonate ore decomposition in CO₂-rich atmospheres.

The optimal proportions of FC, BE, and AS were determined in batch fermentation experiments using Design Expert software, which identified a suitable ratio of 31.05:28.95:0.00 (g VS/L), respectively. The results indicated that hydrogen production in the first stage could occur solely through the hydrogenic bacteria present in the BE and FC mixture, without the need for AS as an inoculum. This optimized FC:BE ratio was then applied in a semi-continuous fermentation system, achieving a hydrogen production rate of 193.6 mL H₂/L.d and a hydrogen yield of 9.8 mL H₂/g VS at an optimal hydraulic retention time (HRT) of 3 d. In the subsequent second stage, the effluent from the hydrogen reactor was used for methane production. This stage achieved a methane production rate of 422.0 mL CH₄/L·d and a methane yield of 140.2 mL CH₄/g VS, with an HRT of 20 d. Overall, the two-stage process exhibited an impressive energy output, peaking at 5.17 kJ/g VS. This suggests the potential for an annual electricity generation of 194,655 MWh and an estimated reduction of 85,668 tCO₂eq/year in greenhouse gas emissions. This study highlights the efficiency of the two-stage anaerobic digestion process for harnessing energy through the co-digestion of FC and BE, without the need for additional AS inoculum.
