Towards a sustainable use of food waste: influence of urea on biogas production potentials of selected fruit wastes in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
This study evaluates the influence of adding urea on biogas (methane) production potentials of selected fruit wastes. Using standard methodology, the finding revealed that all the fruit wastes are ideal substrates for biogas production. The ultimate biogas yield on anaerobic digestion of fruit waste feeds, avocado, banana, and mango, are 0.48, 0.57, 0.53 l/g VS without urea supplement and 0.76, ...
