ABSTRACT
Anaerobic digestion (AD) processes of food waste (FW) have potential risk on environments due to the prevalence and dissemination of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). This study investigated the effect of bentonite on methane production and the abundance of ARGs in biogas slurry and residue during AD of FW. Results showed that methane production increased by 68.52% and 56.79% with 3 g/L and 5 g/L of bentonite in mesophilic and thermophilic digestion, respectively. Adding 5 g/L of bentonite effectively reduced the genes of ermB, ermF, tetQ, tetX, sul1, sul2 and intI1 with a range of 80.82% - 100.00% in biogas residue under mesophilic reactor. The abundance of ARGs and intI1 in biogas residue were lower than in slurry under both temperatures with 5 g/L of bentonite. Statistical analysis indicated that bentonite and temperature were main driver factors which could impact ARGs by influencing the abundance and structure of microbial communities.
