Charles Banks has done some work on this - call him at Southampton University.

Subject: [Digestion] Verification POME & Animal bones

Dear all,

I am working on two AD projects in Uganda and Tanzania. In Uganda we will have access to palm oil mill effluent (POME) and in the case of Tanzania, we have access to slaughterhouse waste, which contains the bones as well (mainly from cow carcasses). We haven't test the 2 feedstock yet.
Does anybody has experience with those 2 feedstock?

With regard to POME, I am looking for data on biogas yield.

With regard to bones; Will it be suitable for AD? Does anybody have experiences with pretreatment of bones? I read somewhere that, after crushing, it has to be cooked first before using as feedstock. What would be the biogas yield?

Who can help me out? Or has some useful literature on this?

Thanks a lot!

Best regards,

Sandra Bos
