Abstract

The operation of anaerobic digester depends on number of factors. Some of these factors are hydraulic retention time, solids retention time, organic loading rate, pH, mixing, alkalinity, temperature, and reactor configuration. A study of these factor are performed to know how these effect the performance of anaerobic digester.
