Effect of Different Sugar Beet Pulp Pretreatments on Biogas Production Efficiency

Effect of Different Sugar Beet Pulp Pretreatments on Biogas Production Efficiency

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of different sugar beet pulp (SBP) pretreatments on biogas yield from anaerobic digestion. SBP was subjected to grinding, thermal-pressure processing, enzymatic hydrolysis, or combination of these pretreatments. It was observed that grinding of SBP to 2.5-mm particles resulted in the cumulative biogas productivity of 617.2 mL/g volatile so...

Cellulase Production by Trichoderma reesei using Sugar Beet Pulp

Cellulase production by the fungus Trichoderma reesei was studied using sugar beet pulp (SBP) as a substrate. The subculture medium was a salt solution consisting of KH2PO4, CaCl2, etc. Fungal cells were sub-cultured in an orbital shaker (180 rpm) at 30°C for 1-2 generations (two days for each generation) and were then used as an inoculum. Exponential cells were inoculated into a medium contain...

The fermentation of sugar-beet pulp silage.

Fungal secretomes enhance sugar beet pulp hydrolysis

The recalcitrance of lignocellulose makes enzymatic hydrolysis of plant biomass for the production of second generation biofuels a major challenge. This work investigates an efficient and economic approach for the enzymatic hydrolysis of sugar beet pulp (SBP), which is a difficult to degrade, hemicellulose-rich by-product of the table sugar industry. Three fungal strains were grown on different...

Investigation of Different Levels of Sugar Beet Pulp and Citrus Residue on Productive Performance of Baluchi Lambs

      In livestock nutrition management to increase productivity, finding intensive sources of food is a great achievement. .The sub-sectors of the agricultural sector in the feeding of ruminant animals make it possible to use them for the production of valuable products such as meat and milk. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of using citrus and sugar beet pulp in diet o...
