Studies from Northeast Agricultural University Provide New Data on Fermentation Research (Influence of Biochar on Physico-Chemical, Microbial Community and Maturity during Biogas Residue Aerobic Composting Process)

Article Description

With the rapid development of large and medium-sized biogas projects, the high-value utilization of anaerobic fermentation residues has become a hot spot in recent years. In this study, biogas residue from biogas engineering was used as composting raw material, and 0 (CK), 2.5% (T1), 5.0% (T2), 7.5% (T3), and 10.0% (T4) biochar was added to investigate its effects on physico-chemical properties, microbial populations, and maturity degree during the aerobic composting process. Results show that the addition of biochar shortens the time (3 days) to reach the high-temperature period, increases the composting temperature (63.8 °C) and germination index (GI), decreases the electrical conductivity (EC), reduces the loss of C and N elements, and increases the microbial population during composting. These results suggest that biochar can improve the maturity and fertility of compost products, and significantly regulate the structure and function of microbial communities during the composting process.
