Abstract
The performance of swine manure in Itapiranga (West side of State of Santa Catarina, Brazil) was evaluated in terms of biogas production and COD removal. Swine manure was treated in a CSTR digester at 35ºC with 20 days HRT and 5L working volume. Stable biogas production from 0,052 to 0,136 m3.m−3.d−1 and COD removal from 6,8 to 13,8 gCOD.L−1 were achieved. Lab-scale experiments showed that continuous digestion could improve biogas yields when compared to conventional batch process. Anaerobic digestion from manure produced has the potential to provide a part of total electrical power required in the swine farm studied.
