ABSTRACT
This study examine ways to make biorefinery lignin accessible for anaerobic digestion. The raw material was the residue after removing carbohydrates by Wet Explosion pretreatment at 190 °C and 7.5% O2 followed by enzymatic hydrolysis. The residual solid was mainly composed of lignin and was the raw material for a second WEx pretreatment operated at 220 °C with 4% oxygen and variable concentrations of NaOH (0-2%). Lignin B was the residue after pretreated without NaOH, Lignin C was pretreated at 1% NaOH, and Lignin E at 2% NaOH. Anaerobic digestion was carried out on all lignin fractions (Lignin A, B, C and E) at thermophilic conditions (52 °C) by mixing 70% of each lignin fractions with 30% clarified manure. The results showed that the lignin samples were demethoxylated as part of the biodegradation and that the highest severity pretreatment (with oxygen and 2% NaOH) resulted in the highest methane yield.
