Abstract

Anaerobic digestion is a promising strategy to treat quail waste since it can be transformed into biogas. However, the high yield of biogas is related to the physicochemical characteristics of the biowaste as a substrate and the reactor applied. This study evaluated biogas and methane production from quail biowaste by applying water dilution strategies and varying the inoculum/substrate ratio (ISR) from 1/1, 1/2, and 1/3 inside the batch reactors. Biogas and methane potential tests were performed with raw manure (DB), cage-washing effluent (EB), and effluent diluted in water (ED) in a 1:1 (v/v) proportion. The highest biogas yield was obtained from sample ED, with ISR of 3/1 being the best condition, resulting in 677 LN biogas kg SV-1. The methane content in the biogas ranged from 59.6% to 66.8%, with the highest value obtained from sample ED with an ISR of 2/1. However, when evaluating the accumulated production of biogas based on fresh matter (FM) instead of volatile solids (VS), it was observed that the highest yield was obtained from sample DB (80 LN biogas kg FM-1). Thus, diluting quail manure with water can increase its biogas production when the results are expressed on a VS basis, but when the results are expressed on a FM basis, the scenario changes, and the raw quail manure (DB) results in the highest values. In addition, the ISR variation improved the comprehension of possible inhibitions along the process.
