pretreatment
6. Abstract
This work investigated the effect of three different chemical pretreatment methods on the
biogas production from the anaerobic digestion of wheat straw. The lignocellulosic material was
separately pretreated using i) the organic solvent N-methylmorpholine N-oxide (NMMO) at
120 ยฐC for 3 h, ii) the organosolv method, employing ethanol as the organic solvent at 180 ยฐC for
1 h and iii) using an alkaline pretreatment with NaOH at 30 ยฐC for 24 h. All the pretreatments
were effective in increasing the biomethane production yield of wheat straw. In particular, the
cumulative biomethane production yield of 274 mL CH4/g VS obtained with the untreated
feedstock was enhanced by 11% by the NMMO pretreatment and by 15% by both the organosolv
and alkaline pretreatment. The three pretreatment methods had a different impact on the
chemical composition of the straw. NMMO hardly changed the amount of carbohydrates and
lignin present in the original feedstock. Organosolv had a major impact on dissolving the
hemicellulose component, whereas the alkaline pretreatment was the most effective in removing
the lignin fraction. In addition to the increased biogas yields, the applied pretreatments
enhanced the kinetics of biomethane production.

7. Abstract
Hard lignocellulosic structure of wheat straw is the main
hindrance in its anaerobic digestion. Thus, a laboratory
scale batch experiment was conducted to study the
effect of thermal pretreatment on anaerobic digestion
of wheat straw. For this purpose, different thermal
pretreatment temperatures of 120, 140, 160 and 180 ยฐC
were studied and the results were compared with raw
wheat straw. Significant differences in biogas
production were observed at temperature higher than
160 ยฐC. Highest biogas yield of 615 Nml/gVS and volatile
solids reduction of 69% was observed from wheat
straw pretreated at 180 ยฐC. Wheat straw pretreated at
180 ยฐC showed 53% higher biogas yield as compared to
untreated. Further, FTIR analysis revealed change in
chemical bonds of lignocellulosic structure of wheat
straw. Modified Gompertz model was best fitted on
biogas production data and predicted shorter lag phase
time and higher biogas production as the pretreatment
temperature increased. Overall, change in
lignocellulosic structure and increase in cellulose
content were the main reason in enhancing biogas
production.

Essentially there are four
energy conversion
pathways for straw;
fermentation for liquid
biofuels, anaerobic
digestion for biogas,
combustion for heat and/or
power and gasification for
syngas.
