Biomethanation potential analysis system

Equipment

/// Features
- 60 bottles available, made of Borosilicate Duran® Schott glass
- Liquid volume capacity ranging from 50 to 200 mL
- Hermetically sealed, with robust aluminium septum and cap
- Initial or continued anaerobic gas purging (N2 80% / CO2 20%)
- Internal pressure tolerance of up to 10 psi
- Biogas analysis by GC-TCD (N2, O2, CO2, CH4) and FTIR (H2S)
- Measures the biogas pressure produced, using digital 0-3 or 0-15 psi nanometer.

/// Examples of applications:
- Assessment of the methanogen potential of organic inputs, in batch mode (~20 to 60 days)
- Assessment of sludge and complex sample biodegradability
- Monitoring of the effects of chemical/physical/enzyme treatment before biodigestion
- Assessment of the toxicity/inhibition of certain inputs on microorganisms
- Optimization of bioprocess input and co-input formulas and ratios
- Validation and calibration of mathematical models of reactions
