Description
The process represented in this dataset involves the decomposition and resource recovery of kitchen waste through steps including crushing and sorting, solid-liquid separation, hydrolysis and acidification, methane fermentation, and resource utilization of digestate, following pre-treatment of the kitchen waste.
The recycling process is powered by electricity to operate equipment, requires consumption of fresh water as process input, and generates electricity that offsets the input electricity, resulting in net electricity output, as well as by-products such as biogas and boiler steam. The residual waste generated is digestate.
This dataset is applicable to the process of anaerobic digestion of kitchen waste.
Activity Description
This dataset represents the process of treating kitchen waste using anaerobic digestion technology. It includes co-substrates and by-products inputs, atmospheric emissions, water discharges, and solid waste generation associated with the anaerobic digestion process.
