From litter to energy: Effect of alkali pretreatment on biogas production from poultry litter and slurry characteristics
Biogas production from various organic substrates has been extensively studied globally, to conserve natural resources, mitigate environmental harm associated with fossil fuels, and address challenges such as energy scarcity and escalating fuel costs. Poultry litter is one such organic substrate that has the potential for use in biogas production. Anaerobic digestion of broiler litter involves co-digestion with carbonaceous substrates under controlled environmental conditions; however, production using broiler litter as the main substrate on a large scale under field conditions has been less studied. In the present experiment, alkali pretreatment of poultry litter was carried out to produce a higher quantity of biogas without any other co-substrate. Three treatments were given as no alkali pretreatment (B0), alkali pretreatment @ 0.1 mol/L (B1), and 0.2 mol/L (B2). The initial and daily organic loading rate (OLR) was kept at 25.40 gVS/L and 1.06 gVS/L, respectively, in all treatments due to a similar dilution rate of 1:10 and digester volume. Results showed that Hydraulic Retention Time (HRT) was lowest in B1 (28 days) followed by B2 (40 days) and then in control (B0) (51 days). B1 had the highest average daily biogas yield (0.0186 m3), followed by B2 (0.0105 m3), and then B0 (0.0013 m3). The composition of biogas also varied significantly between days as well as treatments with the highest methane percent in B2, but the average daily methane yield was significantly higher in B1. Analysis of digested poultry litter slurry revealed significant (P < 0.01) differences in physico-chemical characteristics and proximate composition across treatments and days. It was concluded that alkali pretreatment @ 0.1 mol/L enhances the biogas production potential of poultry litter and slurry obtained along can be utilized as fertilizer. This study offers a sustainable solution for the poultry industry by enabling efficient waste management and renewable energy generation.
