Methane potential of sewage sludge to increase biogas production

S UMMARY
The current global environmental concern which revolves on the
dependency of fossil fuels has caused a mayor impulse in alternative
energies such as solar, wind, geothermal and biogas. Sludge is the only
and most abundant residue that remains from waste water treatment
plants. Sludge can be anaerobically digested and produces biogas,
composed mainly of methane and carbon dioxide. This method reduces
the volume of sludge for disposal and presents a positive energetic
balance, recovering energy as electricity.
This thesis was developed in Hammarby Sjstadsverk research facility,
with the specific aim to perform biochemical methane potential (BMP)
test in the sludge in order to measure the anaerobic biodegradability of
substrate and quantify the maximum methane producing capacity of the
bacteria involved.
Anaerobic digestion is the biological process in which organic material of
a substrate is degraded by microorganisms in the absence of oxygen and
it is the most used method used to stabilize sewage sludge. BMP tests are
used to provide a measure of anaerobic degradability of a given
substrate. This study describes a new BMP test procedure formulated by
Bioprocess Control. The Automated Methane Potential Test System
(AMPTS) consists of a thermostatic water bath used for reactor
incubation. In each reactor a small amount of substrate and inoculum are
incubated at desired temperature and mixed by a slow rotating agitator.
Biogas is produced in each reactor and passes to the next unit. This is a
CO2 fixing step, the biogas goes through an individual vial containing an
alkali solution (NaOH). Gases such as CO2 and H2S are removed by
chemical reactions and CH4 passes to the next step which is the gas
volume measuring device, CH4 is analyzed using a wet gas flow
measuring device that works by the principle of liquid displacement.
When a defined volume of gas is accumulated, the flow cell lifts open
and the bubble of gas emerges through water. After the flow cell has
opened and clicked back down, a digital pulse is generated and recorded
in the computer. Each flow cell is connected to a data acquisition unit
that together with a computer; records and displays the resulting
methane production. In the experiments conducted, two different
inoculums were used to seed the reactors. Inoculum 1 was taken from
Sjstadsverkets reactor and Inoculum 2 was taken from Henriksdals
digestion chambers to make a reliable comparison. The substrate used
throughout all the experiments was the incoming sludge to
Sjstadsverkets reactor consisting in mainly primary sludge. Two
experiments were performed, experiment 1: was using an
Inoculum/Substrate ratio of 2:1 based on VS content. Experiment 2:
was using I/S ratio of 1:1 based on volumes. For experiment 1, VS% of
inoculum and substrate were calculated in order to determine the
amount of volumes to mix. After recollection of data from the AMPTS,
the methane potential was calculated in normalized volume of CH4
produced per gram VS of substrate added (NL/gVS).
After 20 days of incubation samples S1 and H2 in experiment 1 resulted
in 1.06 and 0.88 NL of CH4, respectively. A mean value of accumulated
gas in the blanks was subtracted and a methane potential of 0.29 and
0.33 NL/gVS was determined. For experiment 2, the same procedure
was conducted and samples Control S1 and Control H2 resulting in 1.08
and 0.96 NL of CH4, respectively and a methane potential of 0.31 and
0.29 NL/gVS was determined. For both experiments the first 2-3 days

represented the maximum percentage of accumulated gas (around 4020% of the total gas production).
Results demonstrated that both samples containing inoculum 1,
produced a larger volume of total accumulated gas, however the methane
potential which is calculated in Normal Liters per gram of VS added, is
higher for sample H2 than S1. Therefore this means that samples
containing inoculum 1, after converting all the organic material available
from the substrate started to produce methane from the inoculum itself.
This may suggest that inoculum 1, originating from Sjstadsverkets
digester, can operate at a higher organic load rate. It can also mean that
methanogenic bacteria in the sludge have great adaptability and grew
rapidly.
After analyzing the AD process system of Sjstadsverket it can be
concluded that disposing of the dewatered sludge coming from the
digester would mean a removal of potential organic material that can be
converted to methane. Therefore the recycling and reintegration of the
dewatered sludge back to the digester could mean an increase in the
methane yield of the process, in the meantime decreasing the HRT and
increasing the SRT. This moreover means an increase in capacity and
process efficiency.

S AMMANFATTNING
Nuvarande globala miljproblem som till stor del handlar om beroendet
av fossila brnslen har skapat en stor drivkraft fr utveckling av
alternativa energikllor som sol, vind, jordvrme och biogas.
Avloppsslam r den enda och viktigaste resten frn avloppsreningsverk.
Slam kan anaerobt rtas, vilket ger biogas som huvudsakligen bestr av
metan och koldioxid. Anaerob rtning reducerar volymen av slam fr
destruktion, ger en positiv energibalans och energin kan tervinnas som
elektricitet.
Denna avhandling har gjorts vid Hammarby Sjstadsverk
forskningsanlggning, med det specifika syftet att utfra biokemiska
metanpotentialtester (BMP) av slammet fr att mta den anaeroba
nedbrytbarheten fr substrat och kvantifiera den maximala
metankapaciteten att fr bakterierna.
Anaerob rtning r en biologisk process dr organiskt material i ett
substrat bryts ned av mikroorganismer i frnvaro av syre och r den mest
anvnda metoden fr att stabilisera avloppsslam. BMP tester anvnds fr
att ge ett mtt p anaerob nedbrytbarhet fr ett visst substrat. Denna
studie beskriver en ny BMP testfrfarande som utvecklats av Bioprocess
Control. Automated Metan Potential Test System (AMPTS) bestr av
termostatvattenbad som anvnds fr reaktorinkubation. I varje reaktor
inkuberas en liten mngd av substrat med inokulum vid nskad
temperatur och blandas med en lngsam roterande omrrare. Biogas
produceras i varje reaktor och leds till nsta enhet. Detta r en CO2
fixerande steg dr biogas gr genom en flaska som innehller en alkalisk
lsning (NaOH). Gaser som CO2 och H2S avlgsnas genom kemiska
reaktioner och CH4 passes till nsta steg dr gasvolymen mts med hjlp
av en vt gasfldesmtare, som verkar genom principen om flytande
deplacement. Nr en definierad volym gas samlats, lyfter fldescellen och
ppnas och gasbubbla gr upp genom vattnet. Efter att fldescellen har
ppnat och klickat tillbaka, genereras en digital puls som registreras i
datorn. Varje fldescell r ansluten till en datainsamlingsenhet som
tillsammans med en dator, registrerar och visar den resulterande
metanproduktionen. I experiment har tv olika inoculum anvnts till
reaktorerna. Inokulum 1 togs frn Sjstadsverket rtkammare och
inokulum 2 togs frn Henriksdals rtkammare. Substratet anvnds i alla
frsken var inkommande slam till Sjstadsverket rtkammare som i
huvudsak bestr av primrslam. Tv frsk utfrdes: Frsk 1 anvnde
inokulum/substrat i frhllandet 2:1 baserat p VS innehll. Frsk 2
anvnde inokulum/substrat i frhllandet 1:1 baserat p volymer. Fr
frsk 1, berknades VS% av inokulum och substrat fr att faststlla
vilka volymerna som skall blandas. Efter uppsamling av data frn
AMPTS, berknades metanpotentialen i normaliserade volym CH4
producerat per gram VS av tillfrt substrat (NL/gVS).
Efter 20 dagars inkubation gav proverna S1 och H2 i frsk 1 i 1.06
respektive 0.88 NL av CH4,. Ett medelvrde av ackumulerade gas i
blankprov med enbart inokulum subtraheras varvid metanpotentialerna
0.29 respektive 0.33 NL/gVS erhlls. Fr frsk 2 genomfrdes samma
frfarande och proverna S1 och proverna H2 gav 1.08 respektive 0.96
NL av CH4, och metanpotentialerna 0.31 respektive 0.29 NL/gVS
erhlls. Fr bda experimenten gav de frsta 2-3 dagarna den hgsta
procentandel av ackumulerad gas (ca 40-20% av den totala
gasproduktionen).

Resultaten visade att proverna med inokulum 1, producerade en strre


volym totalt ackumulerade gas, men metanpotential berknat i
Normalliter per gram VS l, r hgre fr prov H2 n S1. Detta innebr att
prover som innehller inokulum 1, efter konvertering allt organiska
material som finns I substratet brjade tillverka metan frn sjlva
inokulum. Detta kan tyda p att inokulum 1, med ursprung frn
Sjstadsverkets rtkammare, kan fungera p en hgre organisk
belastning. Det kan ocks betyda att metanbildande bakterier i slammet
hade stor anpassningsfrmga och vxte snabbt.
Efter att ha analyserat den anaeroba rtningsprocessen vid
Sjstadsverket kan man dra slutsatsen att anvndning av avvattnat slam
frn rtkammaren kan ytterliggare reducera organiskt material som kan
omvandlas till metan. tervinning och cirkulering av avvattnat slam
tillbaka rtkammaren kan ge en kning av metanutbytet av processen
genom att minska HRT (hydrauliska uppehllstiden) och ka SRT
(slamuppehllstiden). Detta innebr dessutom en kning av kapaciteten
och processeffektivitet.

Methane potential of sewage sludge to increase biogas production

A BSTRACT
Sewage sludge is treated with the biological process of anaerobic digestion in which
organic material of a substrate is degraded by microorganisms in the absence of
oxygen. The result of this degradation is biogas, a mixture mainly of methane and
carbon dioxide. Biochemical Methane Potential tests are used to provide a measure of
the anaerobic degradability of a given substrate. This study aims to determine the
methane potential in Sjstadsverkets sludge this will moreover determine the viability
of recycling the digested sludge back into the anaerobic system for further digestion.
Batch digestion tests were performed in both Sjstadsverkets (S1) and Henriksdals
(H2) sludge, for a reliable comparison. An inoculum to substrate ratio of 2:1 based on
VS content was used and BMP tests presented results that S1 and H2 in the 20 days of
incubation produced 0.29 NLCH4/gVS and 0.33 NLCH4/gVS respectively. A second
experiment considering the same amount of substrate (200ml) and inoculum (200ml)
for each sample, showed that Control S1 had a higher methane potential than Control
H2, 0.31 NL/gVS and 0.29 NL/gVS respectively. All the samples containing
Sjstadsverkets inoculum presented a higher volume of total accumulated gas
(measured in Normal Liters), however methane potentials are low. Results
demonstrated that methane production in samples S1 and Control S1 was originating
from the grams of VS in the inoculum itself after depletion of all the soluble organic
material in the substrate. This suggested that Sjstadsverkets sludge can endure a
higher organic load rate and that the digested sludge still has potential to produce
biogas, hence the recycling of this can enhance the biogas production in the digestion
system.
Key words: Anaerobic digestion; Methane potential; Biogas production;
Sewage sludge; BMP.

1. I NTRODUCTION
The current global environmental concern focuses on two important
aspects: the increase in the emission of greenhouse gases, which is
attributed to cause climate change; and the energy crisis. This outlines
the importance of studying alternative energies as a result of the negative
impacts of production and use of fossil fuels as well as the dependence
on the global economy towards them. This has caused a major impulse
to a wide range of alternative energies, such as solar, wind, geothermal
and biogas.
Sludge is the only and most abundant residue that remains from
wastewater treatment plants. Sewage sludge can be anaerobically digested
and its product is biogas, composed mainly of methane and carbon
dioxide. This process moreover minimizes the volume of sludge, which
decreases the also growing problem of exponential generation of waste.
Anaerobic digestion helps break down biodegradable organic fraction
present in municipal solid waste sludge, turning it into biogas with high
methane content, therefore, having a high energy use and a stabilized
final waste with a high rate of destruction of pathogenic microorganisms,
which can be alternatively used as soil fertilizer. Hence, anaerobic
digestion presents a positive energetic balance allowing both pollution
prevention and recovery of sustainable energy (De Baere, 2000).
Anaerobic digestion of sludge not only offers the possible use of biogas
for electricity but the growing interest of upgrading biogas for fuel,
makes this alternative all the more stimulating and attractive.
Hammarby Sjstadsverk is a leading research & development facility in
wastewater purification technologies and currently involved in a project

destined to increase the biogas production from sewage sludge treatment


in their pilot anaerobic reactor. The overall goal is to increase the degree
of digestion to over 60%, reducing the hydraulic retention time from 20
days to 10 days and simultaneously increasing the organic load rate. The
following thesis was developed within this project, testing the
biodegradability and methane potential in the sludge of the digestion
process.
The specific aim of this thesis is to investigate and perform biochemical
methane potential (BMP) test in the sludge of the anaerobic digester
operating in Sjstadsverket, in order to measure the anaerobic
biodegradability of substrate and quantify the maximum methane
producing capacity by the group of organisms present in the sludge, and
the rate of biodegradability. BMP tests as well as being used for
monitoring the quality of the sludge in anaerobic reactors, is a tool that
evaluates the behavior of biomass and determines the maximum organic
load rate that can be applied to the system, ensuring stability and
degradability of the substrates enhancing the overall biogas production.
BMP tests will moreover determine the viability of recycling the
dewatered sludge back to the digester. Furthermore, a comparison with
the sludge from Henriksdal Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) and
the biogas potential therein is also investigated in order to present a
reliable and stable comparison. The necessity to perform this study is
based on developing an alternative use to the volume of dewatered
sludge generated after the digestion process and enhance the overall
biogas production.

2. B ACKGROUND
This chapter gives an introduction to the literature review done in the
thesis work. It starts with the description of types of sludge and the
possible methods of disposition. Following with a theoretical
background of the general steps involved in the anaerobic digestion
process and the description of the parameters that affect the process.
Finishing with a quick overview of the treatment methods of wastewater
used in Hammarby Sjstadsverket and Henriksdal Wastewater Treatment
Plant as well as the technological advances in the anaerobic digestion of
sludge.

2.1

Sewage sludge
As the only residue produced from waste water treatments, the handling
of sewage sludge has become of growing awareness. The disposal of
sludge accounts up to 60% of the total costs for wastewater treatment
plants (Ahmed et al, 2008). The increasing production of sludge and the
risk it may have to the environment and human health have made a
necessity to find efficient ways to handle it and reduce its volume. Many
studies have proven that the process of anaerobic digestion is an
efficient, economic and sustainable method to treat sewage sludge.

2.1.1

Types of sludge
The characteristic of the sludge depends mostly on the origin (treatment
of industrial, domestic or drinking water) and technical parameters used
in each treatment. Sewage sludge can be divided into different types
according to the conventional treatment process it has been through.
Primary sludge comes after the primary treatment, generally physical or
chemical processes to retain suspended particles, large and/or dense
particles (solids, grease and scum). It removes 50-70% of suspended
2

Methane potential of sewage sludge to increase biogas production

solids (El-Hadj 2006). And it has a low level of Volatile Solids content
(VS around 55% to 60%). This type of sludge ferments very easily.
Secondary sludge is generated from the biological treatment of wastewater,
it uses a mixture of living microorganisms, mainly bacteria, that break
down the organic material and contaminants that remain after the
primary treatment. It is also called activated sludge.
Mixed sludge is a combination of primary and secondary sludge that can
be mixed prior to sludge treatment.
Digested sludge is secondary or mixed sludge that has gone through a
biological stabilizing process called digestion. This digestion can be done
under different temperatures (mesophillic or thermophillic) and in
aerobic or anaerobic conditions. Digested sludge is less odorous, reduced
in mass, reduced in pathogens and is more easily dewatered (Bitton,
1999).

2.1.2

Recycling and disposal of sludge


The production of sewage sludge is always increasing with growing
population and effective ways of its handling must be carried out. There
are 3 main routes for recycling and disposing of sludge in the European
Union.
Agriculture
Agricultural application is a way to recycle the agricultural value (macro
and micronutrients) that is present in the stabilized or treated sludge and
incorporate it to land. It may be the cheapest route; however; it has many
constraints and regulations to be followed. Many concerns in potential
risks to human health and the environment have lead to directives and
regulations, such as Directive 86/278/EEC, that assure sludge quality
and microbiological standards. In Sweden the use of sludge in agriculture
has had to gain acceptance and trust. The Swedish Environmental
Protection Agency (SEPA) has implemented more rigorous directives
and regulations that ban the usage of sewage sludge on pastureland and it
controls all the necessary analysis for contaminants in sludge and soil.
Also, Sweden has adopted other regulations concerning different aspects
such as permissible concentrations of toxic elements is sewage sludge,
management of fertilizers, requirements and permissions for waste water
treatment plants, deposit of sludge and sludge quality assurance
(Gendebien et al, 2010).
Incineration
This technique is significantly increasing when an agricultural application
is banned or excluded. Sludge can be incinerated and produces residual
ash which is usually disposed in a landfill, and a flue gas. This alternative
is a potential source of renewable energy, there is the possibility of
energy recovery in the form of heat, which in turn can be used in various
stages throughout the process. The main heat recovered comes from the
flue gases after the combustion process (David et al, 2010). However,
incineration is more costly than agriculture application and the gases
released into the atmosphere may cause impacts on greenhouse gas
emissions.
Landfilling
The landfilling of sludge is decreasing and relatively small in overall. The
multiple regulations for landfilling sewage sludge and the high taxes
imposed in these have made the necessity to come up with more
efficient and economic alternatives. The Landfill Directive 99/31/EC
sets a compulsory target to reduce the biodegradable waste in landfills
3

(Gendebien et al, 2010); therefore limiting the landfilling of sewage


sludge when there is no other route possible. Nevertheless, this
technique is widely used in some countries.

2.2

Anaerobic digestion
Anaerobic digestion (AD) in the most used method to treat or stabilize
sewage sludge before it can be recycled or disposed (Gendebien et al,
2010). Anaerobic digestion is a biological process in which organic
material of a substrate is degraded by microorganisms in the absence of
oxygen. The result of this degradation is a mixture of methane, carbon
dioxide and some small quantities of H2S, H2 and NH3. The composition
of the biogas is dependent on the type of digested material and the
functioning parameters of the process.

2.2.1

Microbiology in anaerobic digestion


The anaerobic digestion process is characterized by four different phases
in the substrate degradation. Each phase is carried out by different
groups of bacteria that relate to each other. In fact many of these
reactions occur simultaneously (Fig.1).
Hydrolysis
The first step in anaerobic digestion is the hydrolysis of high molecular
weight compounds, lipids, proteins, polysaccharides and nucleic acids
into soluble compounds that are easier to degrade such as sugars, amino
acids and fatty acids (Appels et al, 2008). Hydrolytic bacteria involved in
this phase hydrolyze the substrate with extracellular enzymes making
them available for transportation between cell membranes and can then
be degraded in the next phase. The degree of hydrolysis and the speed of
the process depend on many elements that include pH, temperature,
concentration of hydrolytic biomass and particulate size (Soto et al, 1993;
Parawira et al., 2005). Hydrolysis of some complex compounds is the
limiting step of their anaerobic digestion, while if the substrate is readily
degradable, the limiting step is acetogenesis and methanogenesis
(Bjrnsson et al., 2001).
Acidogenesis

Methane potential of sewage sludge to increase biogas production

The soluble compounds obtained from hydrolysis are metabolized by


fermentative bacteria and are converted into more simple compounds
which include volatile fatty acids (VFA), acetate, ammonia, alcohols,
lactate, H2, CO2, and other by-products. The bacteria responsible for this
fermentation are both facultative and obligate anaerobes (Schink, 1997).
Acetogenesis
While some products of the fermentation process can be metabolized
directly by methanogens, other intermediate compounds produced such
as high organic acids and alcohols need to be further digested in order to
be available for methanogens in the next phase. Acetogens are the
bacteria that convert the intermediate compounds into mainly acetic acid
as well as H2 and CO2 (Appels et al, 2008). The conversion in acetogenic
reactions is mainly controlled by a low partial pressure of H2 in the
mixture (Schink, 1997).
Methanogenesis
In this final phase, methanogenic archae convert the acetic acid, H2 and
CO2 into CH4 (methane) and CO2. The methanogenic bacteria are
divided into two groups; the first group is aceticlastic methanogens
which degrade acetic acid to form CH4 and CO2. This path is responsible
for up to 70% of the methane produced in normal anaerobic digesters
(Coates, 1996). The second group is hydrogenotrophic methanogens and
use hydrogen as electron donor and carbon dioxide as acceptor to
produce methane (Appels et al, 2008).

2.2.2 Process parameters in anaerobic digestion


Anaerobic digestion is a complex biochemical process; therefore it is
necessary to maintain optimal conditions that can allow both the
chemical reactions that need to take place, as well as the intracellular
biochemical reactions required for the microorganisms to live. In order
to create a stabilized system there are many environmental parameters to
consider and monitor along the entire process.
Temperature
In general, at high temperatures the rates of chemical and biological
reactions are faster than at low temperatures. Reaction speed of
biological processes depends on the speed of growth of the
microorganisms, which in turn is dependent on the temperature. AD is
produced in nature in a wide range of temperatures from psychrophilic
(below 20 ) to mesophillic (between 25-45 ) and thermophillic
(between 45-65 )(Van Lier et al 1993).
Temperature has many effects on the degradation process, it influences
the partial pressure of H2 in the digester and the growth rate and
metabolism of microorganisms, therefore the population dynamics
(Appels et al, 2008). High temperatures have many advantages for
instance an increase of solubility of organic compounds, enhanced
biological and chemical reaction rates, increased death rate of pathogens
especially in thermophillic environments and an increased degradation of
VFAs and other intermediate compounds (Boe, 2006). However, high
temperature can increase the fraction of free ammonia and can be
inhibiting for some microorganisms (Appels et al, 2008). Temperature
control plays a defining role in the anaerobic process and maintaining a
stable temperature in the digester is of vital importance since sharp
fluctuations of temperature can affect the bacteria behavior, particularly
in methanogens.

pH
The organisms involved in each phase are different and need different
pH ranges to achieve an optimum environment to live in. Therefore
equilibrium between production and consumption of acids must be
established so bacteria can coexist inside the digester in appropriate
conditions. The change in pH can be both an indicator, and the cause of
process imbalance.
Methanogenic archea function in an optimal range of 6.5 8.0 (Boe,
2006) and fermentative bacteria in a wider pH range of 4 to 8.5 (Hwang
et al., 2004). If a drastic pH change occurs, methanogens are interrupted
and cause accumulation of VFAs; hence a decrease of pH in the reactor
and an overall inhibition of the process. Monitoring of pH change and
establishing the right pH is crucial to control and establish a stable
operating system.
Nutrients
Sufficient nutrients and trace elements are required for an adequate
microbial activity. Carbon, nitrogen, phosphorous, sulphur, potassium,
calcium, nickel, zinc, cobalt, iron and copper are necessary for optimal
performance of anaerobic microorganisms (Boe, 2006). Most nutrients
can also be inhibitory to the process if they are present in high
concentrations. Wastewater may contain high levels of the nutrients such
as nitrogen and phosphorus. Generally in swine and cow manure all the
nutrients needed are present in enough quantities.
Mixing
Mixing of anaerobic digesters has many objectives. These can be
summarized in: forming a continual contact between substrate and the
microbial population; preventing the formation of surface layers and
foaming, as well as sedimentation in the digester; eliminating thermal
stratification, sustaining a uniform temperature throughout the entire
reactor and preventing the formation of dead spaces that would reduce
the effective volume of the digester (Noone, 1990). The velocity of the
mixing in a digester is a parameter than can influence greatly in the
development of the digestion. Studies (McMahon et al, 2001) have
discovered that a reactor with minimized mixing can tolerate a higher
organic load than a reactor with intensive mixing, a higher rate of mixing
resulted in acidification of the system. High mixing velocities can
interrupt the formation of bacterial aggregates and the oxidation of VFA
therefore slightly decreasing the biogas production.
Organic Load Rate
The organic load rate (OLR) is the ratio of the amount of organic
material for each cubic meter of digester volume (i.e. kg VS/m3 per day).
The adequate OLR of a system is directly dependent on the digester
design, substrate concentration and retention time. High organic loads
lead to a higher biogas production but also to higher instability due to an
accumulation of VFA (Ahring et al, 1995). A low organic load prevents
overloading and process failure, however results in low methane yield
and is uneconomical to not use the maximum capacity of the digester.
Therefore it is vital to determine an efficient OLR to maximize biogas
production for each AD system.
Retention Times
Retention time is a very important parameter that mainly depends on the
type of reactor to be used and the type of substrate. There can be two
different ways to measure retention time. The first one is by hydraulic
6

Methane potential of sewage sludge to increase biogas production

retention time (HRT) which is the average time a liquid volume resides
inside the digester; the second is by solids retention time (SRT) which is
the average time the solid matter resides inside the digester. The fraction
of organic material degraded increases with higher retention times,
however the methane production will decrease after it exceeds the
optimum. The digestion process needs of methanogenic bacteria. These
are relatively slow reproducing bacteria and need sufficient time to
reproduce. If the rate of bacteria leaving the digester with the effluent
exceeds the growth rate of the bacteria, the population inside the digester
will be washed out of the system. It is therefore necessary to determine
sufficient solids retention time and hydraulic retention time that are
adequate for the system and optimize the process.
Toxicity
There are many substances that can result inhibiting to the growth of
anaerobic microorganisms, these can be already in the influent or can be
produced during the AD process. VFA are the main intermediates in the
AD process and along with acetate, H2 and methanol they become
strong inhibitors for anaerobic sludge if they are present in high
concentrations (Angelidaki et al, 2006). Ammonia is a common inhibitor,
it is produced during the degradation process of nitrogenous matter
mainly proteins. Ammonia toxicity increases at elevated pH and
temperature due to a higher concentration of free ammonia which can
penetrate through cell membranes and cause proton imbalance and
potassium deficiency. The concentration of oxidized sulphur compounds
can also be inhibitory in the process. Sulphate-reducing bacteria compete
with methanogenic and acetogenic bacteria for many substrates like
alcohol, organic acid and others and therefore decrease the amount of
methane in the biogas produced. (Appels et al, 2008). Heavy metals are
also found in industrial and domestic wastewater and sludge. Some heavy
metals such as nickel and copper at low concentrations (below 10-4 M)
are necessary nutrients for many enzymes, but at high concentrations can
cause toxic effects to microorganisms (Boe, 2006).

Hammarby Sjstadsverk treatment process

The following thesis was done at Hammarby Sjstadsverket facilities.


The water treatment designed in Sjstadsverket is a conventional
Swedish wastewater treatment with the following steps: pre-precipitation,
sedimentation, six stages of biological treatment, secondary
sedimentation and sand filtration. The pilot anaerobic reactor in
Sjstadsverket is supplied with both primary and secondary sludge
coming from the sedimentation in different process lines in the plant.
The sewage sludge used to perform the experiments in this thesis came
from Sjstadsverket pilot anaerobic reactor.
In Sweden most of the anaerobic reactors are continuously blended
where the liquid phase is not separated from the solid phase, therefore
having a HRT and SRT of same duration. Sjstadsverket aims to
increase the biogas production in the anaerobic digester and reduce the
normal HRT of 20 days to 10 days and increase the SRT by recycling the
organic material in the digested sludge back to the reactor. The anaerobic
digestion system works in the following way (Fig.2): primary and
secondary sludge (sedimentation from line 1, 2 and 3) are pumped and
mixed in a thickener which is then pumped to the digester. The
anaerobic digester is a 10 cubic meter reactor that operates at a
mesophillic temperature of around 37 C 0.5 C. The recycling of the
sludge consists of dewatering the digested sludge by using a centrifuge

and adding a polymer to separate the organic matter. The dewatered
sludge is then introduced back directly into the digester; this recirculation
will increase the residence time of organic material resulting in increased
biogas production and efficiency. Moreover, the amount of sludge
requiring disposal is reduced and the system becomes less sensitive to
slow growing methanogens, since these can have an adequate time to
grow even if the HRT is low.

2.4

Henriksdal treatment process


The Henriksdal WWTP is the largest one in Stockholm, with an average
incoming flow of about 240,000 m3 / d (Hellstedt et al, 2010). The
treatment process consists of mechanical, chemical, biological treatment
and a final stage in which the water passes through a sand filter before it
reaches the final waterway destination (Fig.3). The sludge that is
produced during the treatment process is collected and pumped into
seven digesters located throughout the plant, adding to a total volume of
about 38,400 m3. These digesters are continuously stirred tank reactors
(CSTR) in which three different fractions are treated: primary sludge,
excess biological sludge and external organic material (sludge collected
from grease separators in the food and beverage industry). After AD, the
digested sludge is dewatered and disposed. The biogas produced in the
anaerobic digesters is collected in a gas dome and utilized for fuel in
electricity production and heating and most importantly for the
upgrading to vehicle fuel (biomethane) (Hellstedt et al, 2010).

2.5

Technologic advances and investigations

Anaerobic digestion is one of the oldest and proven processes used for
the stabilization of sludge resulting from domestic and industrial
wastewater treatment. India, during the 60s noticeably promoted the
biogas production from cattle manure. China followed in the 70s with
the construction of digesters; and during the 80s Denmark made an
effort to demonstrate the potential of AD in production of electricity
(Angelidaki et al, 2006). Great investigations in the basic knowledge of
AD as well as its technological aspects have been developed throughout
the years. These developments have introduced several different
methodologies for the assessment of the activity and methane potential
of sewage sludge and of the anaerobic biodegradability of organic
substrates in wastewater sludge. In the following section, a brief
description of the used methodology in this thesis is described.

2.5.1 Methane potential test


A Biochemical Methane Potential (BMP) test is the most used tool to
provide a measure of the anaerobic degradability of a given substrate.
This method is a simple and fast way to determine the suitability of a
substrate for anaerobic digestion and the potential methane yield therein.
It is also commonly used to evaluate the potential in the co-digestion of
mixed wastes to enhance the digester performance. Moreover BMP tests
can measure the residual organic material remaining after treatment that
can still be used to convert to biogas and the non-degradable part
remaining (Moody et al, 2009). The use of BMP tests provides a
relatively inexpensive, simple and repeatable method to make
comparisons of the anaerobic digestibility and potential biogas potential
between different substrates (Owens et al, 1993).
There are many batch methods used to determine the methane potential
of sludge. The basic principle in BMP tests is to gather organic waste and
blend it with inoculum, incubate it in a closed vial at a specific
temperature and measure the gas production volume and composition.
The inoculum is seed sludge that comes from an operating digester, this
way it is guaranteed to have the necessary microbial populations to
perform the AD of the substrate (Angelidaki et al, 2006). The duration
of the test differs mostly on the biodegradability rate of the substrate,

meaning when there is no more biogas production measured. The


methane potential is expressed in terms of standard temperature and
pressure (STP) ml CH4 per 1 g of VS added (mL CH4 / g VS) (Hansen et
al, 2003).
Many methods based on product formation measuring end product
(biogas) have been published over the years. All carry out the basic
principle, however, the technical approaches and experimental setups
vary significantly. There exist many differences in the pre-treatment of
sample, the inoculum, the incubation process and the gas measurement
method (Hansen et al, 2003). The biogas production can be measured as
an increase of volume under constant pressure (volumetric methods),
measuring the increase in pressure in constant volume (manometric
methods), or the measurement of methane formation by gas
chromatography (Angelidaki et al, 2006).
The above procedures require expensive laboratory equipment such as
gas chromatography also the biogas produced and methane content can
only be measured manually and periodically with gas tight syringes,
making it time-consuming to obtain sufficient data to fully understand
the degradation profile dynamics. This thesis describes the BMP test
procedure used in Bioprocess Controls Laboratory in Lund, Sweden.
The BMP tests were performed with Bioprocess Controls Automated
Methane Potential Test System (AMPTS) (described in more detail in
section 3.1) This AMPTS is a simple and efficient way for the recording
and analysis of high quality data which moreover provides a better
understanding of the methane potential of specific biomass substrates
and its degradation. It is developed for on-line measurements of ultra
low biogas and bio-methane flows produced from the anaerobic
digestion of any biological degradable substrate (both solid and liquid
form) at laboratory scale.

3. M ATERIALS AND M ETHODS


The following chapter describes the experimental setups and protocol
used in the thesis, as well as a characterization of the inoculums and
substrates used. The methane potential was studied using an automated
methane potential test system (AMPTS). Batch digestion tests were
performed to analyze two different types of sludge as inoculum. The
experiments were conducted using each inoculum with different
inoculum to substrate ratio in terms of volatile solids content and
volume. The same substrate was used throughout all the experiments.

3.1

Experimental design
The batch digestion tests for methane potential were carried out using
Bioprocess Controls AMPTS equipment. The instrument setup can be
divided into four units (Fig. 4). Unit A is a thermostatic water bath used
for reactor incubation. In each reactor a small amount of substrate and
inoculum are incubated at desired temperature and mixed by a slow
rotating agitator. Biogas is produced in each reactor and passes to the
next unit. Unit B is a CO2 fixing step, the biogas produced in each
reactor goes through an individual vial containing an alkali solution
(NaOH). Gases such as CO2 and H2S are removed by chemical reactions
and CH4 is the only gas that passes through unchanged. Unit C is the gas
volume measuring device, after CH4 passes through the alkali solution it
is analyzed using a wet gas flow measuring device. This flow cell
measuring device works by the principle of liquid displacement. When a
defined volume of gas is accumulated, the flow cell lifts open and the

bubble of gas can be seen emerging through the water. After the flow
cell has opened and clicked back down, a digital pulse is generated and
recorded in the computer program. Each flow cell is connected to Unit
D, this is a data acquisition unit that together with a computer; records,
analyzes and displays the resulting methane production.

3.2

Inoculum and substrate


During the experiment, two different inoculums were used to seed the
reactors and obtain an adequate environment. Inoculum 1 was digested
sludge taken from Sjstadsverket pilot anaerobic digester. The sludge
was used fresh from the digester and poured into the reactor. The
digester is a 10 m3 CSTR operating at a temperature around 37 0.5 C
and with a HRT of 9 days. The OLR currently being applied at the time
of inoculum collection was 1.3 1.5 kg/m3 per day. Inoculum 2 used in
the BMP tests was digested sludge taken from Henriksdal WWTP. The
sludge was collected and used fresh from one of the digestion chamber
of the plant. The digester works at a mesophillic temperature around 37
C and has a HRT of 19.5 days. The OLR applied to the digester is 1.5
kg/m3 per day.
The substrate used for all the experiments was the incoming sludge of
Sjstadsverket plant, consisting mainly of primary sludge from the
sedimentation in the different process lines. All inoculums and substrate
were characterized in duplicates and an average was calculated (Table 1).

3.3

Batch digestion tests

Two experiments were performed with the AMPTS. The first digestion
test was performed to measure the methane potential in each batch
reactor using different inoculums: Sjstadsverket sludge (Inoculum 1)
and Henriksdal sludge (Inoculum 2). The inoculum to substrate ratio
(I/S) selected was 2:1, based on VS content, which is the ratio mostly
used in literature. Inoculum and substrate were mixed in digesters. Both
samples were performed in triplicates. The second experiment was
performed to determine the methane potential in each batch reactor
using an inoculum to substrate ratio of 1:1 based on the volume, this was
determined to set an example closer to reality where certain parameters
such as VS% may not measured (i.e. codigestion in a farm). Samples
were inoculated with Inoculum 1 and others with Inoculum 2. Both
samples were performed in duplicates. Blank tests for each inoculum
were performed in order to determine the background methane
production from the inoculum alone that can then be subtracted from
the methane production obtained from the samples. Blank tests were
performed in duplicates.

3.3.1 Sample preparation


Setting up the tests, the first step is to determine the VS of the inoculum
and of the substrate to be tested (Table 1). For the first experiment, the
sludge volume added to the bottles was calculated using the VS
concentration. A total volume of 400ml is selected to avoid problems if
foaming occurs. The selected ratio I/S was 2:1:
(Equation 3.1)
(Equation 3.2)
To calculate the amount of inoculum needed, the equations 3.1 and 3.2
need to be re-written, substituting 3.2 in 3.1 to result in the following
equations:
(Equation 3.3)
(Equation 3.4)
Applying the equations 3.3 and 3.4, all the volumes of inoculum (1 and
2) and substrate were determined (Table 2). Reactors containing
inoculum 1 are called from here on S1 and reactors containing inoculum
2 are called H2. When measuring the amount of inoculum and substrate
to be used it is assumed that the density is 1 g/ml so that the volume in
ml is equal to the weight in grams.

For the second experiment, a ratio of 1:1 based on volume of inoculum


and substrate were mixed in the reactor. Two reactors contained (200ml
of inoculum 1 + 200ml of substrate), from here on called Control S1;
and two reactors contained (200ml of inoculum 2 + 200ml of substrate),
from here on called Control H2. After all reactor bottles have been filled
with the determined volumes of inoculum and substrates each mix was
characterized (Table 3) in order to calculate the VS reduction after the
anaerobic digestion.

3.3.2 CO2 fixing


Carbon dioxide fixing bottles are prepared in order to make gases such
as CO2 and H2S to chemically react with an alkali solution and be
separated from the remaining methane. The alkali solution is prepared
with a 3M NaOH solution. A pH indicator (Thymophthalein) is added in
each bottle to monitor the sufficient OH- concentration in order to
effectively strip CO2 and H2S.

3.3.3 BMP setup


The digestion tests were performed in 500ml glass bottles. After filling
up the reactors with inoculum and substrate a rubber stopper with three
openings is placed. One opening is to insert the bent mixing stick that is
attached to a motor. The second opening is to flush the reactor. The
third opening is for biogas flow. Then an aluminum screw cap seals the
reactor. All reactors are marked and placed in the water bath with a
temperature set to 37 C 1C. The gas flow opening is connected to a
CO2 fixing bottle and then connected to a flow cell in the gas measuring
device. After all the tubes are properly connected, each reactor is flushed
with N2 for two minutes. The data logging program was started and the
methane production was monitored during 20 days. The mixing interval
in each reactor was 60 seconds on and 60 seconds off.

Methane production
The methane potential was calculated as the accumulated methane
produced per gram of VS added in each reactor, determined as followed:
(Equation 3.5)
Where,
MP (methane potential) is the normalized volume produced per gram VS of
substrate added (NL/gVS).
Vsubstrate & inoculum is the accumulated volume produced from the
reactor with both inoculum and substrate mixed.
Vinoculum is the mean value of the accumulated volume produced by the
blanks.
The data from the AMPTS was analyzed and mean values from the
sample replicas were calculated for the accumulated methane production
during the 20 days.

3.5

Anaerobic degradability
During the digestion test the SRT was equal to the HRT of 20 days,
however not all the organic material present inside the reactors may be
degraded. The degree of organic degradation in the anaerobic reactors
can be measured based on the VS reduction after the anaerobic digestion
process. The Volatile Solids Reduction (VSR) can be calculated by mass
balance equations (Bhattacharya et al, 1996). Having obtained the
characterization of input and output sludge, the mean degradation of VS
in each reactor in a given time is measured as followed:
(Equation 3.6)

4. R ESULTS AND D ISCUSSION


The following chapter presents the final results from the anaerobic batch
reactors. Both experiments using different I/S ratios are discussed.
(Appendix 1) shows the raw data from all the experiments.

4.1

Methane potential tests


The BMP is the experimental value of the maximum quantity of methane
produced per gram of volatile solid. Applying equation 3.5 explained
before, the methane yield as a function of time was calculated for each
reactor. The results for the batch digestions test (Fig. 5) shows the
methane potential curve of both samples with an inoculum/substrate
ratio of 2:1. Sample S1 uses inoculum of Sjstadsverkets digester and
H2 inoculum from Henriksdals digester. After 20 days of incubation,
sample S1 and H2 resulted in a mean accumulated gas volume of 1.06
and 0.88 Normal Liters respectively. A mean value of the accumulated
gas volume from the respective inoculum blanks is then subtracted from
the accumulated gas volume of each of the samples. The methane
potential is calculated taking in consideration the grams of VS added in
the substrate volume in each reactor, therefore expressed as Normal
Liter per grams of volatile solids (NL/gVS). The maximum methane
potential of S1 and H2 in the 20 days of incubation was 0.29 NL/gVS
and 0.33 NL/gVS respectively. Theses results are in an average range
compared to other literature results.

The accumulated gas volume percentage was calculated continuously in a
daily basis (Fig. 6). For both samples the first two days presented the
maximum percentage of accumulated gas volume which ranged from 4020% of the total gas volume produced in each reactor, this may be due
to the substrate being readily available for the methanogenic bacteria.

Fig 7. Methane potential of samples Control S1 and Control H2 measured in


Normal Liter per gram of Volatile Solids added.
For the second experiment, two control samples were analyzed to
measure the gas production based on the volume of substrate added. In
one pair of samples 200ml of inoculum 1 is mixed with 200ml of
substrate. On the second pair of samples 200ml of inoculum 2 was
mixed with 200ml of substrate. This corresponds to an inoculum to
substrate ratio of 2.4:1 and 1.1:1 for Control H1 and Control S2
respectively. The mean value of accumulated gas volume for control S1
and control H2 was 1.08 and 0.96 NL respectively. The same procedure
as for the first experiment was conducted subtracting the mean gas
volume from the blanks and calculating the methane potential using
equation 3.5 (Fig 7). The maximum methane potential of control S1 and
control H2 in the 20 days of incubation was 0.31 NL/gVS and 0.29
NL/gVS respectively. The rate of methane production was measured as
the accumulated gas volume percentage per day (Fig. 8).
For both samples the first three days display the maximum percentage of
accumulated gas volume which ranged from 37-20% of the total gas
volume produced in each reactor. The slow increase in the methane
production after 10 days could be due possibly to the depletion of
soluble substrates within the first 10 days of digestion, hence meaning
that the reactors were not overloaded.
Throughout both experiments, all the samples containing inoculum 1
had a higher accumulated gas volume (measured in Normal Liters) then
samples containing inoculum 2. On the other hand the methane
potential (measured in Normal Liter per grams of volatile solids) was
higher for sample H2 than S1 when based to a 2:1 I/S ratio. However it
is key to remember that to consider a 2:1 ratio, defined volumes were
calculated (Table 2); and sample H2 contained a larger amount of
inoculum than sample S1. These results show that the high gas volume
collected in samples with inoculum 1 may be due to organic material
from the inoculum itself that are being converted into methane or a

possible increase in the methanogenic population. This may suggest that
inoculum 1 can endure a higher organic load.

4.2

Biodegradability
The principle of anaerobic digestion is based on the growth of anaerobic
biomass. Therefore, outlet sludge is composed of the recalcitrant matter
in the sewage sludge and of the anaerobic biomass, proteins being the
major constituent of the anaerobic biomass (Mottet et al, 2010). For the
output sludge samples results showed a reduction in TS and organic
material due to the fermentation during the anaerobic digestion (Table
4). Taking the initial and final concentration of VS in each sample and
applying equation 3.6, the Volatile Solids Reduction (VSR) percentage
was calculated (Fig. 9). The VSR % for sample S1, H2, Control S1, and
Control H2 were 33%, 36%, 32% and 34% respectively. All samples
carried out around the same VS removal efficiency ranging in 32-36%.
The ranges of VS removal for mesophillic digesters varies among
literature, however thermophillic digesters tend to have a better VS
reduction (Appels et al, 2008).

Because of the small amount of sludge tested and the imprecision in
determining the final VS content; considering that the volatile solids
concentration fluctuates with time; it was rather difficult to measure the
degradability based on the VSR alone (James et al, 1990). For a more
accurate VSR study, a larger sludge volume and longer retention time is
preferable.

4.3

Inoculum to substrate ratio


Although the inoculum/substrate ratios used in these experiments were
in the similar range (1:1 2:1). Behera (2010) shows results that
demonstrate that methane yields are highly influenced by the I/S ratio,
i.e., the lower the I/S ratio, the lower the methane yield. This behavior
might be related to a low methanogenic activity or an insufficient
population of methanogens. This will cause an imbalance in the
production and consumption rate of VFA hence in the accumulation of
the VFA produced during the acidogenic step. High concentrations of
VFA can cause inhibition in methanogens. The VFA concentrations
were not measured in these experiments. However, the pH values of all
the reactors were measured at the end of the experiments (Table 4). The
final pH in the reactors for both experiments ranged from 7.03 to 7.32
indicating a neutral pH with no accumulation of VFA during the
digestion process. This may establish that the reactors have a proper
production and consumption of VFA, therefore were not overloaded. A
VFA accumulation would result in a low pH value.

5. C ONCLUSIONS
This chapter presents the concluding thoughts of the thesis work after
the discussion and analysis of the experimental results and the literature
findings.
From the results obtained it can be concluded that digested sludge can
be used as inoculum for anaerobic digestion in mesophillic environments
and it is possible to measure the methane production of substrates
18

Methane potential of sewage sludge to increase biogas production

resulting in accumulated gas volumes of up to 1.06 Normal Liters of


methane in 20 days of incubation. BMP tests were performed in batch
laboratory scale reactors at a mesophillic environment of 37 1 C.
Results demonstrated that both samples containing inoculum 1 (S1 and
Control S1), produced a larger volume of total accumulated gas
(measured in Normal Liters) then H2 and Control H2. However the
methane potential which is calculated in Normal Liters per gram of VS
added, is higher for sample H2 than S1. Therefore this means that
samples containing inoculum 1, after converting all the organic material
available from the substrate started to produce methane from the
inoculum itself. This may suggest that inoculum 1, originating from
Sjstadsverkets digester, can operate at a higher organic load rate and
still perform efficient anaerobic digestion of organic material. It can also
mean that methanogenic bacteria in the sludge have great adaptability
and grew rapidly.
After analyzing the AD process system of Sjstadsverket it can be
concluded that disposing of the dewatered sludge coming from the
digester would mean a removal of potential organic material that can be
converted to methane. Therefore the recycling and reintegration of the
dewatered sludge back to the digester could mean an increase in the
methane yield of the process, in the meantime decreasing the HRT and
increasing the SRT. This moreover means an increase in capacity and
process efficiency.
The reactors with a higher VSR percentage corresponds to the reactors
with higher methane potential, however because of the small amount of
sludge tested and the imprecision in determining the final VS content;
considering that the volatile solids concentration fluctuates with time; it
is rather difficult to measure the degradability based on the VSR alone.
The BMP test gave a more clear and precise degradation profile of the
sludge reactors that was reproducible.
All samples tested reached the maximum percentage of accumulated gas
volume (around 40% of the total gas volume) during the first 3 days of
incubation (Fig. 6 and 8). This suggests that no inhibition existed during
the process and that the fast depletion of soluble substrates encourages a
higher organic load rate in the operating digester. It was also considered
that the final pH value in the reactors was a good indicator of an
efficient anaerobic digestion, maintaining the reactor around a neutral
pH value means that there is no VFA accumulation and the production
and consumption of these are balanced, providing and effective
methanogenic activity.
The experimental batch reactors must be monitored and controlled
frequently in order to capture and record the methane production as a
function of time. The use of the Automated Methane Production Test
System reduces the workload and allows a continuous recollection of
data. This makes it easier to conduct BMP test with longer retention
times and fully understand the degradation profile of a given substrate.
Previous methods using pressure tight syringes and gas chromatography
present efficient results and are commonly used. Nevertheless, the
suggested protocol using the AMPTS is a more simple and detailed
procedure that has a great potential in the studies of methane production
and can furthermore determine the viability of pretreatment methods for
enhanced anaerobic digestion and determine inhibition in methane
potential for future research.

6. F UTURE RESEARCH
Anaerobic digestion has the potential to effectively treat sewage sludge,
and the use of anaerobic batch reactors at a laboratory-scale has been
proved to produce qualitative results on determining the methane
potential of substrates. This thesis has helped to develop a better
understanding about the digestion process in the Sjstadsverket reactor.
However, there are still many issues that should be further investigated.
The following are several ideas or proposals for future research:
Testing pretreatment methods of sludge can potentially increase the
biogas production in a significant manner. Performing batch reactor tests
can determine the most efficient method that can benefit the specific
AD system being investigated. At the moment, there is no pretreatment
done in the sludge entering the anaerobic digester in Sjstadsverket
facilities. Therefore many methods, from enzyme addition to ozone
treatment, can be tested in laboratory-scale reactors. The use of AMPTS
can determine its feasibility and the potential in increased biogas
production.
Codigestion of different substrates is also an interesting alternative that
can be researched. Codigestion of municipal sewage with agricultural
waste has been a popular topic of investigation, resulting in significant
increase in the biogas production (Ahring et al, 1992). However the
codigestion of different types of substrates can develop many problems
such as nutrient deficiency, low alkalinity, and excessive solids content.
Implementing laboratory-scale reactors, the codigestion of substrates can
be monitored and analyzed. This would represent an inexpensive way to
increase biogas production.
Inhibition tests are an excellent way to assess the origin and the degree
of inhibitions that can be present or developed in the anaerobic process.
Inhibition can be caused by a high concentration of intermediates
products, alkali metals or toxic compounds that have a lethal effect on
biomass (Angelidaki et al, 2006). Therefore, inhibition can be easily
produced in AD and hence must be monitored closely. An additional
objective of performing these tests is to assess the ability of the sludge to
recover or adapt to an inhibitor.
