by Y. ElGnaoui, F.Karouach, M.Bakraoui, M.BarzbH. ElBari (Science Direct/Energy Reports) The treatment of food waste (FW) is an important challenge in developed and undeveloped countries due to the rapid disintegration of this waste. Hence biogas technology is used to produce energy and to reduce the volume of waste. This technology has disadvantages
by Fadoua Karouach, Mohammed Bakraoui, Yasser El (Science Direct/Energy Reports) Methanization is a technology that involves complex biological reactions and it is the subject of several scientific studies. The paper aims to evaluate the effect of the combined mechanical and ultrasonic pretreatment (CMUP) on the anaerobic digestion (AD) of the
