Abstract

This study investigated the effect of using nanofiber membrane composites containing Prussian blue-like compound nanoparticles (PNPs) with a stainless steel mesh as the carrier (NMCs) to relieve ammonia nitrogen inhibition of rural organic household waste during high-solid (total solid content of 15 %) anaerobic digestion (AD) and increase methane production. NMCs with different PNP contents were added to high-solid AD. When NMC with 15 % PNPs was added, the concentrations of volatile fatty acids and ammonia nitrogen were lower than those of the blank control group, and the methane yield was the highest (301.31 mL/g volatile solids [VS]), at 2.8 times higher than that of the blank control group. The R2 value of the modified Gompertz equation was 0.997. During digestion, the activities of extracellular protease and coenzyme F420 were higher than those of the control group. NMCs were successfully recovered at the end of the experiment, and confocal scanning three-dimensional electron micrographs indicated that NMC with 15 % PNPs of NMCs had stronger biological activity; microbial community structure analysis indicated increased abundance of hydrogenotrophic methanogens in this group. The study provides a new solution for improving the efficiency of biogas production and the recycling of exogenously added materials.
