Abstract
In this study, crude glycerol from the biodiesel industry was tested as a co-substrate in biogas production. To investigate the influence of crude glycerol and the underlying trace element (TE) content on the efficiency of biomethane production, a batch experiment using Automatic Methane Potential Test System (AMPTS II) was carried out. The single addition of crude glycerol significantly contributed only to the total content of K (14.4%), Si (17.3%), and P (11.6%), whereas the contributions of other metals were within the range of other substrates. The addition of crude glycerol increased biomethane production, however, its utilization beyond 1% of total volume resulted in prolonged lag phase and final cessation of biomethane production. The negative effects of inorganic salts present in crude glycerol were reflected in progressively diminishing parts of glycerol and methanol being utilized in its anaerobic digestion, posing serious problems for daily routine use. A nonlinear least square regression analysis was performed to fit the Gompertz, Logistic, Transfer, and Richards models to biomethane production. The most suitable model was the Richards model, exhibiting the best fit to the experimental curves for complex substrates. Glycerol fractions remaining after biodiesel production have to be pre-tested for their negative effects on the content of TEs and inorganic salts, lag phase in biogas production, before they are used as co-substrates in biogas production phase.

Title:Vpliv surovega glicerola iz proizvodnje biodizla in vsebnosti njegovih elementov v sledovih na proizvodnjo biometana v šaržnem eksperimentu: modeliranje kot korak k enakovredni rutinski primerjavi rezultatov
Abstract:
V študiji smo za proizvodnjo biometana kot kosubstrat uporabili surovi glicerol iz industrije proizvodnje biodizla. Da bi raziskali vpliv surovega glicerola in vsebnosti osnovnih elementov v sledovih (TE) na učinkovitost proizvodnje biometana, smo izvedli šaržni poskus z uporabo Automatic Methane Potential Test System (AMPTS II). Enkratno doziranje surovega glicerola je pomembno prispevalo le k skupni koncentraciji K (14,4 %), Si (17,3 %) in P (11,6 %), medtem ko so bili prispevki drugih elementov v sledeh v območju koncentracij drugih substratov. Z dodajanjem surovega glicerola se je povečala proizvodnja biometana, a ko je njegova uporaba presegla 1 % celotne prostornine, smo zaznali dolgotrajno lag-fazo in končno prenehanje proizvodnje biometana. Negativni učinki anorganskih soli, prisotnih v surovem glicerolu, so se odražali v postopnem zmanjševanju koncentracije glicerola in metanola, ki so se razgradili v procesu anaerobne presnove, to pa predstavlja resne težave pri vsakdanji rutinski uporabi surovega glicerola. Izvedena je bila analiza nelinearne regresije najmanjših kvadratov z uporabo modelov Gompertz, Logistic, Transfer in Richards za kumulativno proizvodnjo metana. Najprimernejši model je bil Richards, ki se je najbolj prilegal eksperimentalno izmerjenim krivuljam kompleksnih substratov. Frakcije glicerola, ki ostanejo po proizvodnji biodizla, je treba predhodno preizkusiti zaradi negativnih učinkov, ki jih lahko povzročajo TE, anorganske soli in lag-faze, preden se lahko uporabijo kot kosubstrati za pridobivanje bioplina.
