Biogas production from waste pulps of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) via anaerobic digestion
Cassava waste pulps (CWPs) from starch industries demand attention for sustainable disposal. This study explores anaerobic digestion of CWP with pig manure, optimizing conditions for biogas production. Gas chromatography reveals significant biohydrogen concentration (18.69 ± 1.71%), offering promising, low-emission energy. CWPs show potential for valuable biogas generation, benefiting both industry and environment.

Biogas from cassava peels waste
The study investigates biogas and biofertilizer production from cassava peels waste inoculated with cow dung in Nigeria. Various pretreatment chemicals were used, and six batch anaerobic biodigesters were employed for 40 days. Stale cassava peels with NH4Cl pretreatment yielded the highest biogas production (2540 cm3/day) and methane yield (62.3%). Digester sludge demonstrated good biofertilizer qualities.
