Biomethane Potential Data for Co-digestion of Poultry Manure and Fruit/Vegetable Waste

A 2026 study by A. S. Ayantokun determined optimal substrate blends for co-digesting poultry manure and fruit/vegetable waste to produce biomethane. The research includes experimental biomethane potential (BMP) values, model-based predictions, and metagenomic profiles of microbial communities in different blends. Substrates were sourced from Bloemfontein, South Africa, with findings intended for broader application.

Use Cases

• Optimizing substrate blend ratios for biogas production based on experimental BMP assays.
• Comparing predicted versus experimental biomethane yields from organic waste.
• Analyzing shifts in microbial community structure (e.g., Actinomycetota, Bacillota) across different substrate blends.
• Evaluating the impact of lignin content on anaerobic digestion performance and model reliability.

Strengths

• Includes specific experimental BMP values, such as 133 mLCH4/gVS for FVW monodigestion and 289 mLCH4/gVS for PM monodigestion.
• Provides metagenomic profile data for microbial phyla across substrate blends.
• Identifies a specific optimal blend (PM20FVW80) for co-digestion.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• The dataset is a 769.8 KB DOCX file, suggesting a limited scope primarily containing a research document rather than raw, structured data tables.
